Background: Hyponatremia associated with antipsychotic drugs is a rare but potentially life-threatening adverse drug reaction; the underlying pharmacological mechanism has not yet been explained. Methods: We investigated the relationship between pharmacological targets of antipsychotic drugs and the occurrence of hyponatremia by conducting a nested case-control study using the Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System database. Multiple logistic regression was used to determine the associations between antipsychotics receptor occupancy and hyponatremia. We also performed a systematic review of clinical studies on this association. Results: Of 139 816 reports involving at least 1 antipsychotic, 1.1% reported hyponatremia. Olanzapine was the most frequently suspected drug (27%). A signi ?cant positive association was found between dopamine D3, D4, and hyponatremia, while adrenergic α 1, serotonin 5-HT1A, and 5-HT2A receptor occupancies were negatively associated. A multivariable stepwise regression model showed that dopamine D3 (adj. odds ratio = 1.21; 95% CI = 1.09-1.34; P <. 05) predicted the risk for hyponatremia (P <. 05), while serotonin 5-HT2A occupancy (Adj. odds ratio = 0.78; 95% CI = 0.68-0.90; P <. 01) exhibited a protective effect against hyponatremia. Among the 11 studies included in the systematic review, incidence rates of hyponatremia diverged between 0.003% and 86%, whereas the odds of developing hyponatremia from effect studies ranged between 0.83 and 3.47. Conclusions: Antipsychotic drugs having a combined modest occupancy for D3 and 5-HT2A receptors and higher levels of D3 receptor occupancy correspond to different degrees of risk for hyponatremia. Based on the few, relatively large-scale available studies, atypical antipsychotics have a more attenuated risk pro ?le for hyponatremia.

Abstract

Background: Hyponatremia associated with antipsychotic drugs is a rare but potentially life-threatening adverse drug reaction; the underlying pharmacological mechanism has not yet been explained. Methods: We investigated the relationship between pharmacological targets of antipsychotic drugs and the occurrence of hyponatremia by conducting a nested case-control study using the Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System database. Multiple logistic regression was used to determine the associations between antipsychotics receptor occupancy and hyponatremia. We also performed a systematic review of clinical studies on this association. Results: Of 139 816 reports involving at least 1 antipsychotic, 1.1% reported hyponatremia. Olanzapine was the most frequently suspected drug (27%). A signi ?cant positive association was found between dopamine D3, D4, and hyponatremia, while adrenergic α 1, serotonin 5-HT1A, and 5-HT2A receptor occupancies were negatively associated. A multivariable stepwise regression model showed that dopamine D3 (adj. odds ratio = 1.21; 95% CI = 1.09-1.34; P <. 05) predicted the risk for hyponatremia (P <. 05), while serotonin 5-HT2A occupancy (Adj. odds ratio = 0.78; 95% CI = 0.68-0.90; P <. 01) exhibited a protective effect against hyponatremia. Among the 11 studies included in the systematic review, incidence rates of hyponatremia diverged between 0.003% and 86%, whereas the odds of developing hyponatremia from effect studies ranged between 0.83 and 3.47. Conclusions: Antipsychotic drugs having a combined modest occupancy for D3 and 5-HT2A receptors and higher levels of D3 receptor occupancy correspond to different degrees of risk for hyponatremia. Based on the few, relatively large-scale available studies, atypical antipsychotics have a more attenuated risk pro ?le for hyponatremia.
