A TCA + Lithium --- Na and Fluids?

TCAs can cause SIADH (Syndrome inappropriate antidiaretic hormone secretion) (too much)
this would cause water retention (dense urine) and possibly hyponatremia.

Lithium from what I understand blocks the response to ADH,
which could lead to hypernatremia? and dilute urine?

what about Lithium + TCA?

Also, its my understanding that when excersizing we lose a lot of Na and
water, and if we rehydrate without Na replacement, then we are put into
a hyponatremia state (feel real crappy).
