First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท 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.
