Does lithium increase fluoxetine level??

Posted by sac on September 24, 2004, at 21:35:25

Hi, I recently started lithium (Eskalith CR) 450mg. at a low dose to stabilize my bipolar II. I must be having a strange reaction because, while it definately has helped to boost my mood, I am unusually overactive. I also take 20 mgs. fluoxetine. I'm wondering if the lithium is increasing the blood level of the ssri. I once became manic when I was on 40mgs. prozac/day and I sort of feel that same sense of akathisia/overactivity. Any ideas?? Thanks.
