Lithium toxicity can occur as a result of intentional overdose therefore, care must be taken when administering lithium to potentially suicidal patients with BPAD. Inadvertent lithium toxicity may also occur. For example, diuretics and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) slow the excretion of lithium and can lead to accidental toxicity. Consequently, the patient should be advised not to take such commonly available medications while treated with lithium. In addition, dehydration resulting from varied causes such as diarrhea, vomiting, and profuse sweating can lead to accidental lithium toxicity. One should advise the patient who takes lithium to be careful to remain well hydrated at all times and to contact his/her physician if any medical condition arises that may cause rapid fluid losses (e.g., stomach virus, high fevers). [Pg.80]
