> Thanks. I'm really wanting to give it another try or maybe trying Lithobid instead of plain Lithium tablets might be better. I've heard the longer acting lithobid has less side effects which was part of my problem. I'm currently on Depakote, Wellbutrin, and Restoril.

The combination of Lithium + Lamictal often prevents relapses into both mania and depression. The NIMH, NIH has studied this treatment very closely.
