We apply the stochastic variational method to the action of the ideal fluid and showed that the Navier-Stokes equation is derived. In this variational method, the effect of dissipation is realized as the direct consequence of the fluctuation dissipation theorem. Differently from the previous works \cite{kk1,kk2}, we parameterize the Lagrangian of SVM in more general form. The form of the obtained equation is not modified but the definition of the transport coefficients are changed. We further discuss the formulation of SVM using the Hamiltonian and show that the variation of the Hamiltonian gives the same result as the case of the Lagrangian.
