  • Title: Lithium-induced sinus node dysfunction at therapeutic serum levels.
    Author: Singh LK, Praharaj SK, Munda SK, Khess CR.
    Journal: Natl Med J India; 2011; 24(3):151-2. PubMed ID: 21786844.
    Abstract:
    Lithium-induced cardiotoxicity, though rare at therapeutic levels, has been reported frequently in overdoses. We report a patient who developed sinus bradycardia while being treated with lithium carbonate even though the serum lithium levels were within the therapeutic range. It reversed following withdrawal of lithium and did not reappear with subsequent treatment with valproate.
