None (14) · Acute mania: 300 mg PO TID (immediate-release) or 900 mg PO once daily (extended-release Lithobid); titrate based on serum levels to target 0.8-1.2 mEq/L. Maintenance: target 0.6-0.8 mEq/L. All dosing guided by serum lithium levels drawn at the 12-hour post-dose standardized trough. (1)

None (14) · Oral only. No parenteral lithium formulation exists for clinical use. (1)

None (14) · Oral peak plasma 1-2 hours (immediate-release); 4-6 hours (extended-release). Therapeutic antimanic effect typically evident within 5-14 days of achieving target serum levels; for acute mania, a neuroleptic or benzodiazepine is usually co-administered while lithium titration proceeds. (1)

None (14) · Lithium's mood-stabilizing benefit is prophylactic and requires continuous maintenance dosing; it is not a PRN or acute-episode-only medicine. Discontinuation is associated with high relapse rates and a potentially rebound worsening of episode frequency. (1)

None (14) · 18-36 hours at steady state; longer in elderly patients (24-60 hours) and those with renal impairment. Half-life is entirely a function of glomerular filtration rate, as lithium is exclusively renally eliminated with no hepatic metabolism.'"`UNIQ--ref-0000004C-QINU`"' (1)
