There have been a number of recent reports describing water intoxication in infants.1-4 In each case, hyponatremia followed an excessive intake of free water, either as the result of feeding mismanagement1-3 or vigorous hydration with water during a febrile illness.4 This report describes an infant who developed hyponatremia and seizures after swallowing an unknown volume of water during a swimming lesson. We will discuss the case and comment on present recommendations for preschool swimming instruction. CASE REPORT An 11-month-old girl was in excellent health until the day of admission.

A case report of a patient who developed water intoxication during carbamazepine therapy is described. The discontinuation of carbamazepine, along with supportive care, resulted in spontaneous diuresis and the resolution of both the laboratory and clinical signs and symptoms of water intoxication. A review of the literature regarding carbamazepine-associated water intoxication and a discussion of the mechanism of its antidiuretic effect is presented.
