Low Dose Lithium and Weight loss?

Posted by SueT on July 20, 2003, at 22:44:04

Hi,
I started taking 300 mg of Lithium about 5weeks ago to agument the SSRi that I take. I also take Topamax for BPII and prior to starting the Lithium I was losing some weight, but it seems to have stalled. My question is: has anyone ever lost weight on low doses of lithium? I know that in higher doses it will cause weight gain, but my dr said maybe that would not happen with a low dose. Thanks.
