I'm currently taking 600 mg of lithium daily. I'd like to increase my dose slightly but lithium gives me bad diarrhea at higher doses. I'd thought about taking 600 mg's one day and then 900 mg's the next day, alternating like that. But when trying that before, diarrhea did become a problem. So, could this be done: Mon. 600 mg, Tues. again 600 mg, Wed. 900 mg, and so on taking 900 mg every THIRD day? Would I experience withdrawal effects from taking the 900 mg and then taking only 600 mg's the following 2 days? If anybody can answer this, thank you very much!!!
