What are lithium side effects?

Are these "normal" Lithium side effects?

  • I have Bipolar Disorder and my medication was switched to 300 mg, twice a day, of Lithium on (last) Friday, October 14th. Since then, I've had: blurred vision double vision headaches nausea diarrhea loss of appetite complete feeling of starvation (I know, it sounds weird with the previous one) extreme fatigue loss of interest in everything no sex drive random bouts of crying mean mood swings Does anyone else experience this?

  • Answer:

    These are symptoms of lithium toxicity, contact your prescribing doctor immediately. This can be fatal, go and get your levels tested.
