Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

• Male or Female patients aged 18 higher

• Presence of uncontrolled diabetes with fasting glycemia ³ 200 mg/dL (³ 11.09 mmol/L)

• Patients considered by the Investigator unsuitable candidates to receive an investigational drug (e.g., presence of any neurological symptoms that may worsen in five days, based on the judgment of the Investigator, or presence of any neurological symptoms for which the persistence of hyponatremia over several days may be deleterious)

• QTCB 500 ³ ms
