"I am an ICU nurse, my mother has end-stage cardiomyopathy with congestive heart failure (CHF). Currently hospitalized in Memphis for CHF, she was being treated with diuretics, but sodium got down to 115. After trying 3% saline, which caused more CHF, her cardiologist decided to try Vaprisol. Doctors and pharmacists had only used it a couple of times. Within 2 days, sodium was up to the mid 120s, and they were able to aggressively diurese her. Good results. She probably would not have lived through this episode if not for this drug."
