My Dr had my labs drawn last week when I was taking 1200mg in pills. However, it was causing horribly stomach cramps and nausea at night. So...she took it back down to 900mg. I saw her today and she was so happy with the level last when I was still taking the 1200. She said she could tell I had felt better when I was taking the 1200....so she switched me to the liquid lithium. Im supposed to split the dose. So I am taking it in the am and pm now.

Has anyone else taken lithium citrate? She said it shouldn't hurt my stomach or cause nausea. If it does, she also gave a med to help with that.
