1200 mgs./day. Also take 240 verapamil, avapro, hydrochlorothiazide, lipitor, aspirin. They also prescribed stadol, and norflex for an attack, but haven't used.Lithium has some strange side effects; thirst, trembling (some days worse than others), diarrhea (take with food to prevent), weight gain, confusion, and my wife says fast mood swings. But it has stopped alcohol and environmental heat from being triggers for me...off to the see the neuro today to see how my blood level is...good luck to you.
