Phase 3
Completed
Conditions
Euvolemic and Hypervolemic Hyponatremia
Registration Number

Brief Summary

This study is a multicentric, open label, non comparative, phase III study with a objective to assess the efficacy and safety of Conivaptan hydrochloride injection (administered as a loading dose of 20 mg for 30 min followed by the continuous intravenous of 20 mg for 24 hrs at assessment 2 and further based on the serum sodium readings administration of drug will be given as continuous intravenous infusion of 20 or 40 mg per day for an additional 1-3 days) in the treatment of euvolemic and hypervolemic hyponatremia. We have updated list of investigators, ethics committee approval status for version 3, inclusion and exclusion criteria, primary and secondary outcome
