I have been taking lithium orotate for 9 years. No side effects. Amazingly, my psychiatrist has recommended that I take it long term. When she learned more about it, she recommended that I take it more often. It works for me.

My son regressed into autism at 3 years old and he had the worse anxiety especially fear of other children. Gave him lithium orotate and in two weeks i thought it was magic, he could go in classroom

As a chemist, I am often astounded at just how much elements have an impact on our health.

I'm a(n organic) chemist an am familiar with orotates. Lyme disease, which I no longer have, left me with periodic aphasia. When that nasty condition strikes, I use phosphatidyl serine and lithium orotate (I can use either, but using both works best), and in ten to fifteen minutes, the brain is working fine. I'm a writer, and need my noggin functioning top notch. The dose I use depends on how bad the aphasia is, using 10mg pills. I let my body tell me what I need. No side effects at all. Lithium orotate is, after all, in groundwater. You bring forward accurate information about the orotate form of lithium. Orotate minerals are quite safe. Especially lithium. Great stuff.

You are a lifesaver ! Awesome as Always !

Very informative, thank you. I was confused though because I heard three different timelines for how lithium affects you personally aside from the fact that some people need three weeks or more. I heard that it works for you within 10 to 15 minutes. Then I heard you say it took two days to start working for you. Then I heard that in two hours anyone would know whether it was affecting them or if there were any side effects.

Hi i am on lithium orotate and it has virtually changed my life, i believe i undiagnosed bipolar and the effects it has was unbelievable, mood stable i can focus i can remember am not irritated agitated or depressed!

If you follow the recommended adult dosage of up to 5 mg 3-times per day it should not be a problem. In fact it should improve your sex life because it helps stabilize your mood.

The lithium orotate was helping me sleep and focus better, but for some reason, it started to make my stomach inflammation, pain, indigestion worse, and I think I'm going to have to stop. I have not read reviewers who say it causes stomach upset, but in my case it is very strong. At first the orotate gave me palpitations and anxiety but that went away with time. I have a diagnosis of Cyclothymia, and have been prescribed lithium carbonate but before resorting to these medications I wanted to try natural or milder options. I have not done very well with nootropics, they seem too stimulating for me. I was taking 5mg in the morning and before bed, pipingRock brand. I don't know if it's the supplement, its quality, or that lithium orotate reacts that way for me. It is difficult this way of experimentation.😢

If you get stomach pain from micro-dosing Lithium Orotate I can't imagine what'll happen if you try prescription lithium because the dose is much, much higher. Are you using any other meds like ACE inhibitors, diuretics, are dehydrated, calcium deficient, or are dealing with kidney or heart disease?

You sound much more upbeat and confident. I’m not saying you weren’t before but something is definitely different haha 😛 is it the lithium orotate??

Where can I find 1 mg dosage of LO pills? I took one 2.5 mg (half 5 mg pill) for 4 days and I feel very letargic, reduced appetite, emotionless, focused but slow thoghts... I want to try a super micro dosage to see if it works for hypomania e anxiety (I almost never get the depression phase).

I supplement this with phoptdylserine and it helps me focus. I am grateful to this man as I was having weird symptoms and I was at the point of losing my job due to Lyme infection. I never received help from doctors and they kept denying that I have any problems as I never tested positive for Lyme.

Hello, do you have any recommendations for how we can handle medication shortages? Lisdexamfetamine has run out so people (like me) are being shifted on to other less effective meds but also are concerned about how to supplement less effective meds without causing issues. While med shortages are temporary, the not knowing when it's going to end is what causes a lot of issues when trying to find alternatives solutions or supporting less effective meds.

Charlene, I deal with the same medication shortages in SE Florida. There is not much we can do other than vote in the next election for someone who know this stuff and goes to bat for us. Some of these medication shortages are because of an attempt by our politicians to stop abuse of the same drugs that we need just to function normally.

I think it was a carry over from using high dose Lithium Carbonate which caused problems with producing phospholipids I think. So Omega-3s and Vitamin E were used to help restore that lipid creation process. But don't quote me on that because I'm speculating here. And have nothing to back it up.
