In acute hyponatremia we give 3 percent NS…in chronic we do water restriction or vaptans…means we don’t give isotonic saline in hyponatremia patients??..or is there an indication for that as well?
When patient is severe admitted in ICU, seizures+ we can give 3%nacl or else for moderate cases give Ivf(NS -Isotonic) is given
Vaptans to be used when there is dilutional hyponatremia like chf or ckd
