Hi Doxogenic.

I couldn't tell you for sure, but my guess is that it should take no longer than a few weeks. Hopefully, someone else can tell you with more certainty.
I think the dosage of lithium where you are at is optimal to use as an adjunct for depression. You might want to get a blood test for lithium level after a week has passed. My guess is that 0.3 mmol/L will be enough to get some benefit.
Sorry I couldn't give more definite answers.
Good luck.
