Samsca (tolvaptan) is used to treat low blood sodium (hyponatremia), specifically cases where the body has too much water relative to salt (often described as “euvolemic” or “hypervolemic” hyponatremia). [1]
Samsca (tolvaptan) blocks the vasopressin V2 receptor in the kidney, which reduces how much water the kidneys reabsorb. That helps raise blood sodium levels by increasing free-water loss. [1]
No. Tolvaptan is used for particular forms of hyponatremia. If the cause of low sodium is different (or if there are safety concerns), clinicians may choose other approaches instead of Samsca. [1]
