yes it does i have used it many times
Lithium salts, such as lithium carbonate (Eskalith)
Lithium!
lithium (carbonate) is a salt and is commonly found in the earth. It is very important in treatmentof bipolar disorder. It is the classic medication for bipolar illness (manic depressive). It stabilizes the cyclic behavior of mania and depression. The person doesn't exoperience such low cycles of depression or highs of mania. It was the first medication used for this disorder. Nowadays, there are several medicatons used for this same disorder.
Eskalith is the trade name of a medication that delivers lithium carbonate; they are the same thing. Using both together is, in effect, delivering a far higher dose than you might intend.
Some application of lithium are:- lithium ion batteries- lithium carbonate as a medicine- lithium greases- lithium compounds uses as flux in laboratory melting- lithium fluoride is used as a crystal in X-ray spectrometry- alloys for aerospace technology- lithium hydroxide absorb CO2- LiAlH4 is an additive to rocket propellants- reagents with lithium in organic chemistry- lithium deuteride is used in nuclear fusion experimentsetc.

No, Lithium is a salt that is used to treat Bipolar disorder
lithium hydroxide + carbon dioxide --> lithium bicarbonate
lithium is used to control manic episodes in manic depression.
Lithium salts, such as lithium carbonate (Eskalith)
A medicines used to treat depression is often referred to as lithium but it is NOT the element lithium. Taking pure lithium metal would be very dangerous as it is a very reactive alkali metal.
Lithium carbonate is thermally decomposed by heating.

lithium carbonate + hydrochloric acid ---> lithium chloride + carbon dioxide + water
Lithium carbonate, Li2CO3 is the most commonly prescribed ternary lithium salt. Manic depression is now called bipolar disorder.
