Indications1.Treatment of mania and hypomania. 2.Lithium may also be tried in the treatment of some patients with recurrent bipolar depression, for which treatment with other antidepressants has been unsuccessful. 3.Prophylactic treatment of recurrent affective disorders.Dosage and AdministrationA simple treatment schedule has been evolved which, except for some minor variations, should be followed whether using LITHICARB FC therapeutically or prophylactically. The minor variations to this schedule depend on the elements of the illness being treated and these are described later.1. In patients of average weight (70kg) an initial dose of 400- 1,200mg of LITHICARB FC may be given as a single daily dose in the morning or on retiring. Alternatively, the dose may be divided and given morning and evening. The tablets should not be crushed, chewed or swallowed with hot liquids. When changing from other lithium preparations serum lithium levels should first be checked, then 2. LITHICARB FC therapy commenced at a daily dose as close as possible to the dose of the other form of lithium. As bioavailability varies from product to product (particularly with regard to retard or slow release preparations), a change of product should be regarded as initiation of new treatment. 3. Four to five days after starting treatment (and never longer than one week) a blood sample should be taken for the estimation of serum lithium level. 4. The objective is to adjust the LITHICARB FC dose so as to maintain the serum lithium level permanently within the diurnal range of 0.5 - 1.5 mmol/L. In practice, the blood sample should be taken between 12 and 24 hours after the previous dose of LITHICARB FC. 'Target' serum lithium concentrations at 12 and 24 hours are shown in Table 1.LITHICARB FC tablets are scored, therefore they can be divided accurately to provide dosage adjustments as small as 125mg. Serum lithium levels should be monitored weekly until stabilisation is achieved.Table 1. Target serum lithium concentrations "Target" serum lithium concentration (mmol/L) At 12 hours At 24 hours Once daily dosage 0.7 - 1.0 0.5 - 0.8 Twice daily dosage 0.5 - 0.8 4. Lithium therapy should not be initiated unless adequate facilities for routine monitoring of serum concentrations are available. Following stabilisation of serum lithium levels, the period between subsequent estimations can be increased gradually but should not normally exceed three months. Additional measurements should be made following alteration of dosage, on development of intercurrent disease, signs of manic or depressive relapse, following significant change in sodium or fluid intake, or if signs of lithium toxicity occur. 5. Whilst a high proportion of acutely ill patients may respond within three to seven days of the commencement of LITHICARB FC therapy, LITHICARB FC should be continued through any recurrence of the affective disturbance. This is important as the full prophylactic effect may not occur for 6 to 12 months after the initiation of therapy. 6. In patients who show a positive response to LITHICARB FC therapy, treatment is likely to be long term. Careful clinical appraisal of the patient should be exercised throughout medication (see Precautions).Treatment of Acute Mania, Hypomania and Recurrent Bipolar Depression:It is likely that a higher than normal LITHICARB FC intake may be necessary during an acute phase and divided doses would be required here. Therefore, as soon as control of mania or depression is achieved, the serum lithium level should be determined and it may be necessary, dependent on the results, to lower the dose of LITHICARB FC and re-stabilise serum lithium levels. In all other details the described treatment schedule is recommended.Prophylactic Treatment of Recurrent Affective DisordersIt is recommended that the described treatment schedule is followed.Use in the Elderly:In elderly patients or those below 50kg in weight, it is recommended that the starting dose be 400mg. Elderly patients may be more sensitive to undesirable effects of lithium and may also require lower doses in order to maintain normal serum lithium levels. It follows therefore that long term patients often require a reduction in dosage over a period of years.Use in Children and AdolescentsNot recommended.

Quality RX is a pharmaceutical supply company, with experience in delivering high quality, low cost pharmaceuticals to a worldwide market. They offer one of the largest and most diverse product ranges available on-line. With a 24 hour turnaround from orders recieved to despatch, they can offer a very reliable, confidential and cost effective service to their clients. They have a number of reliable manufacturers and wholesalers around the world that provide them with quality generic and name brand pharmaceuticals. Their aim is simple. To offer their clients the best service and the lowest possible price. You do not need a prescription to buy their products as they work under the laws of the country they ship from. They do recommend you check with your local customs to see if it is okay to import these products. For all their products they recommend you seek medical advice before use. They do not offer consultations in any form.
Quality RX stock 100's of prescription drug products. They have shipping facilities for International customers. The shipping address depends on the product you have ordered and from which manufacturer or wholesaler it is being supplied from. Standard Air Mail shipments normally arrive within 10 - 28 days of being shipped. They generally ship within 24 hrs of processing the order or next business day, but delays may occur when items are on back order. If an item is on back order it can take up to 7 days to be back in stock. They are based outside the US and products are often sold under a different name. They are the same brand name product, sold by the same company under a different name or equivalent brand name product made by another pharmaceutical company. They guarantee all deliveries. If your shipment does not make its destination within 28 days, they will reship or refund at no extra cost. No questions asked.
All drugs that they offer on their site are in their generic form, and listed by their brand name. Every drug in existence is given a generic name upon its creation. The most popular and mass marketed drugs are then given a copyright brand or trade name for sales purposes. This is very similar to the way actors use a stage name. Just as the actor is one person with two names, these drugs are one chemical with two names. Stage names and brand names serve the same purpose, for the public to identify and easily remember the specific drug. The drugs supplied by Quality RX are manufactured in India, home to an enormous pharmaceutical industry, largely owned and operated by US drug companies. Under international law, Indian patent law allows scientists to reverse-engineer the active molecule of brand name drugs using a different process than the original patent, thereby allowing these manufacturers to obtain a process patent of their own. These drugs, legally made and patented in India without huge development and advertising costs, can be sold legally worldwide, at a fraction of the cost of the name brand they duplicate. That is why Quality RX can offer their low prices. As a result, India has become the largest producer of generic drugs in the world, with a quality that meets all health and medical standards. Their pills and caps are factory machine sealed in bubble packaging, untouched by human hands. They accept both Visa Card and Mastercard as a form of payment. They apologise for any inconvenience caused by not offering more payment solutions.
