Jeroen,

Lithium dosing information is available here:

http://reference.medscape.com/drug/eskalith-lithobid-lithium-342934

As the site mentions, lithium blood levels need to be monitored to ensure that concentrations of the mineral salt don't rise to a toxic level.

I don't know how safe it would be to combine lithium with Seroquel XR and Abilify. Maybe somebody else here will know, or perhaps you could ask a pharmacist, chemist, or medical professional.

I'm sorry that I couldn't be of more help.

T.

 

thanks Tomatheus
