Buy Lithium Carbonate

Lithium carbonate is a mood-stabilizing medication used to treat bipolar disorder. It works by affecting the balance of certain chemicals in the brain, helping to stabilize mood and treat or control the manic episodes of bipolar disorder. Specifically, Lithium carbonate affects the flow of sodium through nerve and muscle cells in the body, which can cause excitation or mania.

Your doctor may prescribe lithium carbonate if you require treatment for bipolar disorder. It is typically used for long-term mood stabilization. Lithium carbonate is usually taken two to three times daily.
