Diabetes drug shows promise for dangerous low sodium condition
NCT ID NCT04447911
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether the diabetes drug empagliflozin (Jardiance) can safely raise low sodium levels in people with certain conditions like SIADH, liver failure, or kidney failure. About 172 adults with chronic low sodium will receive either the drug or a placebo for up to 30 days. The goal is to see if the drug works better than current treatments like fluid restriction.
