Hi,

First of all, you should measure the level of lithosun in the blood every 3 months in order to adjust the dose of the drug during the treatment. The normal level should be 0.4 to 0.8 mEq/L for maintenance therapy and 1 to 1.5 mEq/L in the start of the treatment. Second, you should do thyroid function tests every 3 months, because the lithosun interfere with the Iodine re-absorption and use by the thyroid gland. Third, you should ask your doctor to adjust the dose of the drugs. Finally, the treatment for depression needs the medical treatment and psychological treatment in order to achieve good result.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Mustafa, Neurologist
