Drugs causing SIADH mnemonic

Hello!

Because ADH makes you retain water, the mnemonic goes: "SIADH Causes Poor Voiding"

S: SSRIs (Sertaline)
I: Indomethacin (Analgesics)
A: Antidepressants (Tricyclics)
D: Diuretics (Thiazides)
Desmopressin
H: Hello :D

Causes:
Cyclophosphamide
Chlorpromazine
Carbamazepine
Poor:
Phenothiazines
Voiding:
Vincristine
Vinblastine

If you want a smaller mnemonic, one of the awesomites told me she uses "ABCD" for drugs causing SIADH
A: Analgesics
B: Barbiturates
C: Cyclophosphamide, Chlorpromazine, Carbamazepine 
D: Diuretics (thiazides)

That's all!
Smile.
