Lithium neurotoxicity at therapeutic level--a case report.

R Kumar1, J K Deb, V K Sinha.   

Abstract

A 30 years old Hindu male presenting with symptoms of lithium toxicity. On investigation, serum lithium level was found to be 0.5 meq/l. Though toxicity at this level of lithium is unusual, still neurotoxicity happened to be the cause of his hospital admission. He was debarred from taking lithium further and carbamazepine was started as mood elevator. He responded favourably.
