Hyponatremia vasopressin receptor antagonists (vaptans), such as conivaptan, may be slightly more effective than fluid restriction in those with high volume or normal volume hyponatremia. They should not be used in people with low volume. Their use in SIADH is unclear. Demeclocycline, while sometimes used for SIADH, has significant side effects including potential kidney problems and sun sensitivity. In many people it has no benefit while in others it can result in overcorrection and high blood sodium levels. Daily use of urea by mouth, while not commonly used due to the taste, has tentative evidence in SIADH. It, however, is not
Human serum albumin domain. Serum albumin is commonly measured by recording the change in absorbance upon binding to a dye such as bromocresol green or bromocresol purple. Serum albumin concentration is typically 35–50 g/L (3.5–5.0 g/dL). Hypoalbuminemia means low blood albumin levels. This can be caused by: Hyperalbuminemia is an increased concentration of albumin in the blood. Typically, this condition is due to dehydration. Hyperalbuminemia has also been associated with high protein diets. Human albumin solution or HSA is available for medical use, usually at concentrations of 5–25%. Human albumin is often used to replace lost fluid and help restore blood volume in
