NCT ID NCT01212211
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether reviewing and changing the medications of elderly adults with mild hyponatremia (low sodium) could help raise their sodium levels. 18 retirement home residents over age 65 with low sodium took part. Half had their medications reviewed by a pharmacologist and possibly changed, while the other half continued their usual treatment. The main goal was to see if sodium levels returned to normal within 4 weeks.
