What are the most common treatments for hyponatremia?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Fluid Restriction: Hyponatremia means your body has much more water than sodium. Therefore you are advised to limit your water intake, so the excess water can be urinated out. After a short period of time, your bodyy will naturally go back to perfect electrolyte harmony.

Water restriction: The first line therapy would be to restrict your free water intake each day. You may also be prescribed a higher salt diet or even salt tablets.
