In reply to Lithium orotate instead of Lithobid?, posted by Sooshi on February 14, 2004, at 19:12:03
My pdoc who is an MD, practices both normal medication and alternative methods. She says they always try lithium orotate first because it has been so effective to nearly everyone they have given it to and just as effective as the prescription lithium. The bonus: no side effects and no dangers to the body of toxicity. I am currently taking it and it is helping quite a bit. Can't hurt to try it first to see if it works and then move to the prescription if it doesn't. It sounds like from what my doc was telling me that if you respond to prescrition lithium, then you will probably react well to the organic lithium orotate form. good luck
