AI summarySynthesized from FDA + DailyMed + ClinicalTrials.gov data
SAMSCA (tolvaptan) is an oral vasopressin V2 receptor antagonist approved by the FDA in May 2009 for the treatment of hyponatremia. The drug works by blocking vasopressin signaling in the kidney's collecting duct, promoting aquaresis and free water excretion. SAMSCA is positioned as a specialized therapeutic agent for fluid management in conditions associated with inappropriate antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) secretion and hypervolemic or euvolemic hyponatremia.
