I am on Seroquel AND Lithium Carbonate, in 2 separate pills. Seroquel mainly consists of Quetiapine, and whatever they use to cover the pill with, which is NOT lithium. Also , if Seroquel had lithium in it, the doctor would not prescribe me lithium on the side, as that would be doubling up on it and be very dangerous.

Hope this helps,

No, Lexapro does not have Lithium. Lexapro contains a chemical called Escitalopram. It falls into a class of drugs known as SSRI's which is believed to work by increasing one's Serotonin levels by blocking its re-uptake. Lithium is a completely different drug that elevates mood by increasing serotonin by causing the body to make more.
