  • Title: Hyponatremia induced by thiazide-like diuretics in the elderly.
    Author: Oles KS, Denham JW.
    Journal: South Med J; 1984 Oct; 77(10):1314-5. PubMed ID: 6484653.
    Abstract:
    We have presented five episodes of hydrochlorothiazide-induced hyponatremia in three elderly nursing home patients. Fortunately all our patients survived. The common use of thiazide diuretics in this population and the nonspecific symptoms that follow toxicity make it imperative to monitor closely elderly patients who are taking thiazide diuretics.
