  • Title: [Determination of lithium in serum and saliva of patients with manic-depressive disorder].
    Author: Koch U, Klinger G, Morgner J.
    Journal: Psychiatr Neurol Med Psychol (Leipz); 1990 Apr; 42(4):201-5. PubMed ID: 2377674.
    Abstract:
    The slight therapeutic breadth involved means that manic depressive lithium prophylaxis may call for life-long routine management. The lithium/serum-level checks required hitherto are here compared with a non-invasive method, that of determining the lithium level from a mixture of the patient's saliva, a method involving no danger that will eventually assume considerable importance.
