I wouldn't worry about taking lithium. It may actually be something that benefits you in other ways over your life time. It may just extend your life span and protect your brain. Lithium also can be an antiviral and boost your immune system.
After a few months, I would talk to your doctor and see if you can lower the lithium dose and maintain the prozac dose. A low dose like 150 to 300 mgs may just be enough to help and give you all of those potential benefits. Unless you are already on that low of a dose.
