My pdoc told me that he tries to keep lithium levels from going over 1.0, and uses other mood stabilizers to augment the lithium beyond that.

I guess your target level depends on whether you are using the lithium as a primary mood stabilizer, in combo with another mood stabilizer, or as an augmentation agent for antidepressants. When I was on it, .8 seemed to be the right level for me.
