What is the minimum dosage for Lithosun SR Tablet?
Asked by Female, 24 · 3 days ago
There is no fixed minimum dose that applies to everyone. Lithosun SR contains lithium carbonate (400 mg per tablet), and its dosage must be individualised based on the patient’s medical condition, response to treatment, and regular monitoring of blood lithium levels. The exact starting and maintenance dose should only be determined by a doctor, as lithium requires close supervision to ensure both safety and effectiveness. Never start, stop, or adjust this medicine without medical guidance.
