Overview Lithon 300mg Tablet

Litomax 300mg tablets are indicated for managing bipolar disorder and manic episodes in adult patients. This medication may also be prescribed for certain other behavioral conditions. Its action reduces both the frequency and severity of manic episodes. Litomax 300mg tablets should be ingested with food, consistently at the same time daily to ensure stable blood levels. Complete the prescribed course, avoiding missed doses. If a dose is missed, take it immediately upon recall. Continue treatment as directed by your physician; abrupt cessation can be harmful. Potential adverse effects include tremor, dysarthria, ataxia, nausea, emesis, acne, leukocytosis, and cognitive impairment. Hair loss, thyroid enlargement, dermatitis, and polydipsia may also occur.
