摘要
Drug-induced hyponatremia is common in the first week of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) treatment, especially among women and patients older than 65 years old. Older women who need to use SSRIs should consider SSRIs with a lower incidence of drug-induced hyponatremia and use lower dosages. Physicians should enhance the monitoring of clinical symptoms and blood sodium levels of the patients who take multiple medications that easily cause hyponatremia.
並列摘要
藥物引起的低血鈉常見於使用選擇性血清素回收抑制劑（selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, SSRIs）的第一週，特別是女性且年紀大於65歲的病人。因此，老年女性如果需要使用SSRIs，應考慮選擇發生率較低的藥物和使用較低劑量。當病人服用多種容易引起低鈉血症的藥物時，醫生應加強對臨床症狀和血鈉濃度的監測。
