Sažetak
Lithium is a therapeutic agent currently in widespread use for the treatment of bipolar disorder. Chronic lithium ingestion in patients with bipolar (manic-depressive) illness has been associated with several different forms of renal injury. Nephrogenic diabetes insipidus is most common, but renal tubular acidosis, nephrotic syndrome, and chronic interstitial nephritis have also been described. Therapy for lithium poisoning depends on the adequacy of renal function and the degree of intoxication.
