I just had another consultation and I was prescribed LITHIUM. Wtf. It's one of my favorite songs sa Nirvana but I'm not sure I wanna take it. I was warned din na need to monitor the kidney. Am I better off bipolar than risk damaging my kidney?![]()
the deleterious effect of lithium against the kidney, is acceptably low in majority of patients. your doctor was just informing you, in case you were in the minority.
if we pulled out of the market every drug that has a possible negative effect on some organ, even if statistically small, we would probably have no drug left in the market.
heh heh.
