it can take several days to weeks to work--dont stop taking it without telling your doc.
side effects--mild thirst-frequent urination
drowsiness-fine hand tremors-or mild nausea.
ive been taking it along with verapamil for
8/9yrs every day and has worked great for me.
i do get tremors, but there very light.
just make sure if your on it every day for 6 months or more to get a blood test to check the lithium levels.
good luck and peace....jonny
