Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: 1.Patients of either sex, aged more than or equal to 18 years. 2.Patients who have mean serum sodium concentration between 115 and 129 mEq per liter both inclusive. 3.Patients who have serum osmolality less 290 mOsmol per kg water. Mean serum sodium concentration refers to the mean of two serum sodium readings 0 and 4 hours obtained during the baseline period of 4 to 12 hours. For the patients in whom treatment of hyponatremia with conivaptan cannot be delayed, the sample at 0 hr will be considered as the baseline reading. Note: Patients of either sex, aged more than or equal to 18 years
