Abstract
Methylenedioxymethylamphetamine (MDMA) is rapidly becoming the psychoactive drug of choice in many regions of the country. It produces amphetamine-like noradrenergic stimulant effects as well as serotonergic euphoric effects. Morbidity may be related to either of these neurochemical properties; this includes psychomotor agitation and serotonin syndrome-like manifestations. We report the case of a young woman who developed symptomatic hyponatremia after using Methylenedioxymethylamphetamine that appeared to be due to the syndrome of inappropriate diuretic hormone (SIADH).
