Summary
The study investigates the association between normalization of serum sodium levels and bone
markers in patients with epilepsy and chronic hyponatremia.
The study is a randomized, single blinded, placebo controlled study where participants will
be randomized to either treatment with salt tablets or placebo tablets through 4 months. At
the beginning and end of the 4 months bone markers will be measured.
The investigators null-hypothesis is that there will be no difference in bone markers before
or after the intervention.
