BOXED WARNING: "LITHIUM TOXICITY - Lithium toxicity is closely related to serum lithium concentrations, and can occur at doses close to therapeutic concentrations. Facilities for prompt and accurate serum lithium determinations should be available before initiating therapy." "The toxic concentrations for lithium (≥1.5 mEq/L) are close to the therapeutic range (0.8 to 1.2 mEq/L)," with toxicity ranging from "fine tremor, lightheadedness, lack of coordination" to "clonus, confusion, seizure, coma, and death." Also warns of lithium-induced nephrogenic diabetes insipidus from reduced renal concentrating ability, and hyponatremia from decreased renal tubular sodium reabsorption.
