I was trying lithium carbonate and acetate but both made me allways nauseous. Then my pdoc gave me lithium aspartate and it worked without any big problems. After more than two years taking abou 20 mmol at night I have severe constipation bloating (gaz) and sometimes abdominal cramps. Can that be the lithium ? I am taking 300 mg of Efexor and 1200 mg of Neurontin too (per day). Lowering the dose of Effexor and Neurontin didnt work. Tried bulking agents, magnesium, zelnorm, bisacodyl etc. What about an other lithium form - like sulfate and slow release ? My TSH and other important factors in the blood are okay.
