RESUMO
Hyponatremia is common in the attack of acute intermittent porphyria(AIP), which can cause epilepsy, coma and other adverse events and endanger the life of patients. Carbohydrate loading therapy is applied to control the attack of AIP in the clinic. But the application of glucose can exacerbate hyponatremia. It is difficult for clinicians to effectively correct hyponatremia while treating AIP with glucose. We reported a case of AIP whose refractory hyponatremia was corrected with short-term low-dose tolvaptan to improve knowledge in management.
