In reply to How much depakote and/or lithium is safe?, posted by AWorriedMom on May 10, 2003, at 17:14:42
Typical lithium dose is 600-900mg, often
starting at 1200 if mania is present, and then
lowered; what is significant is the blood
levels (0.5-1.0 or 1.2 is considered safe).
I have a number of articles on lithium dosing
on my site lithium@yahoogroups.com if you
type in the key wordsdose
dosing
lithium dosing
in the blank.
A good palce ot look is the Stanley Institute
as well as Virtual Hospital under the
key wordslithium dosing
