Abstract
A case of the syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone in association with Wernicke's encephalopathy is described, where both responded to intravenous vitamin B complex. Thiamine may be life-saving in hyponatraemia with neurological signs due to Wernicke's encephalopathy.
