My doctor started me on 600 mg a week ago. So far I feel tired and need to drink a lot of water..also pee a lot but that's it..She may up me to 900 mg after I get my blood work done tomorrow depending on my levels..another thing to remember is you need to stay hydrated on lithium or your salt levels will be out of balance with your potassium levels etc. So 8 8 0z glasses of water a day maybe more if you are in a dry area..eat low carb and exercise a few times a week as well. Doing this benefits you while taking the drug..
