What is Lithium Carbonate?

Lithium Carbonate is a generic prescription drug used to treat manic episodes in patients with bipolar disorder (manic-depressive disorder). Mania is a hyper-excited mental state characterized by rapid speech, grandiose ideas, extreme happiness, disorganized ideas, lack of sleep, hyperactivity, aggressiveness, and poor or risky judgment.

Lithium Carbonate stabilizes mood only in one out of three patients. No one really understands how Lithium Carbonate works to stabilize mood even though it's been in use for over 50 years. Current research on nerve proteins, however, is leading to the conclusion that a bipolar disorder that does not respond to lithium may be a different disease than a bipolar disorder that does.

Lithium Carbonate is available in immediate and extended-release forms. Lithium Carbonate is taken as a capsule, tablet, or oral solution.
