Inclusion Criteria:

• Male or female patients aged 18 years and higher.
• SIADH (the diagnosis of SIADH is based on several criteria including true serum hypoosmolality, inappropriate urinary osmolality, clinical euvolemia, elevated urinary sodium excretion while on normal salt and water intake, and normal renal, adrenal, and thyroid functions: drug induced SIADH will be limited to carbamazepine or derivatives and antidepressants in patients in whom these drugs cannot be discontinued or easily replaced by other drugs)
• Serum sodium between 115 and 132 mmol/L (at least two consecutive serum sodium levels of at least 24 hours apart, from Day -6 to Day -1); for sodium levels between 125 and 132 mmol/L, the spontaneous serum sodium increase between the two assessments on Day -1 should be < 4 mmol/L
• Urinary osmolality >200mOsm/kg H2O
• Urinary sodium > 30 mmol/L

Exclusion Criteria:

• Patients with acute postoperative SIADH
