I have been on this medication for a week in combonation with prozac and adderrall, and I can honestly say that I have never ever felt better. I can only hope that my mood and my control over my emotions and impulses continue to get better.

Lithium is a great medication, however, I got a few of the side effects that it says you MAY receive while taking this drug. I first started taking this and felt great within a few days! I then started the hand trembling and then very slowly started to see a change in my vision. I noticed that I would get like quick flashes of light or one eye would go blank.

I then started the hand trembling and then very slowly started to see a change in my vision. I noticed that I would get like quick flashes of light or one eye would go blank.

I have been using Lithium for almost 30 years now with great results. I shudder to think what life would be like without it. Unfortunately, I'm brand-sensitive. That is, I do not respond to just any brand of the drug that my pharmacy is pushing at the moment. I only respond to Lithobid made by Sandoz.

That is, I do not respond to just any brand of the drug that my pharmacy is pushing at the moment. I only respond to Lithobid made by Sandoz. I have picked up some moderate hand trembling as the years have gone by, but other than that, I have no side effects to speak of. I literally owe my life to this drug, since like most of us, I have come to find that there are some things in life that are worse than death.

Have taken LICO2 for 30 yrs. I lead normal life - no manic or depressive episodes. Med has over 500 interactions including steroids; MD prescribing other meds should check for them. I had IA's w/ Trazodone & Topamax.

I've been on lithium for over 10 years. At one time I was switched to another medication. The other medication did nothing for me. I'm grateful for lithium. With it, no one knows I'm bipolar unless I choose to tell them.
