    Are medications like lithium just not available? A month’s supply of lithium to keep levels in the therapeutic zone can easily require giving someone plenty to trigger acute lithium toxicity.

    What country if you want to share? I am in the US, but I’m curious how treatment is handled in cases where the patient requires more potentially toxic medications to help with their psychiatric conditions.
