This is a report of a patient who developed symptomatic hyponatraemia during chlorpropamide therapy for diabetes mellitus. The patient's clinical and biochemical abnormalities were corrected by withdrawal of chlorpropamide. This represents a drug induced, reversible form of the syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone (SIADH).
The occurrence of transient neonatal diabetes mellitus in male twins with almost identical courses of illness is reported. A trial with chlorpropamide treatment of twin A had no obvious influence on the insulin consumption or on duration of treatment. Very low values of plasma C-peptide and serum proinsulin with no detectable insulin antibodies supports the theory of delayed maturation of the beta-cell.
