Hyponatremia has various causes and management depends on what is causing hyponatremia. If patient is drowsy, hyponatremia is corrected via injectables and if patient is stable it can be treated via oral medications, salt capsule, etc. Patient need to be evaluated in detail for deciding the treatment.
