What are the Symptoms of a Priadel (Lithium) Overdose? Please help?

Signs of Lithium toxicity include fine tremors progressing to course tremors, difficulty walking, and most commonly, gastrointestinal distress including severe cramping, diarrhea, and nausea and vomiting. You may also experience slurred speech or be in a stupor. This can lead to a coma and possible death and is considered an emergency in the health care field. If you are in the United States you can call your local poison control center at 1-800-222-1222 and they will answer any questions you have in a nonjudgmental manner.
