[Profile of lithium carbonate use in patients with bipolar disorder in Colombia].

CONCLUSION: Lithium was generally used at recommended doses and intervals, but a significant percentage of patients received lower doses than those recommended, and it was not possible to compare with lithium levels in blood. Adverse reactions and blood lithium levels reporting should be improved in patients with bipolar disorder in Colombia. PMID: 28527265 [PubMed - in process]
