> what is a recommended dose for the normal lithium maniprex dose for depression i want to play it safe
For me, the optimum dosage of lithium carbonate to treat my depression is 450 mg/day. I have seen the recommended range for depression to be 300 - 600 mg/day. In bipolar disorder, the amount of lithium necessary to act as a mood-stabilizer usually lies between 900 - 1500 mg/day; the optimum dosage to be determined by blood tests. I don't know how lithium is used in schizophrenia.
