Desipramine-associated SIADH in an elderly woman: case report.
The syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) has numerous etiologies, including medical illness, stress, and various pharmacologic agents. While a number of psychotropic agents may induce SIADH, only a few reports of tricyclic-antidepressant-induced SIADH exist. A case of SIADH associated with desipramine treatment in an elderly depressed woman is described.
