Quetiapine-Induced Syndrome of Inappropriate Secretion of Antidiuretic Hormone

Abstract: The syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) can be induced by various conditions, including malignant neoplasms, infections, central nervous system disorders, and numerous drugs. We here report a case of a 65-year-old female patient, treated with quetiapine for schizophrenia, who presented with generalized tonic-clonic seizures and was finally diagnosed with quetiapine-induced SIADH. Quetiapine-associated hyponatremia is extremely uncommon and only a few, relevant reports can be fou… Show more

“…Quetiapine has presented a positive re-challenge for causing hyponatremia in the elderly population [ 12 ]. Quetiapine has been associated with causing SIADH [ 17 ]. Atypical antipsychotics such as aripiprazole, quetiapine, clozapine cause hyponatremia due to their serotonin-mediated effects on central 5-HT2 and 5-HT1c receptors which lead to the release of ADH.…”

“…There are few cases of SIADH induced by quetiapine, something that could be related to underdiagnosis and underreporting of this situation. Nonetheless, some cases are collected where quetiapine, together with other factors such as advanced age and polytherapy, is involved in the development of hyponatremia [29][30][31].…”
