Lithium dose depends on your body. The toxic dose can be close to the effective dose, so the doctor is always careful to check your liver functions. The first sign of toxicity is severe diarrhea and nausea, so it's harder to keep a lethal dose down. The best thing do to if you think someone has taken too much lithium is to take them to the hospital.

234 mg per pound of body weight

ex: 100 lbs = 23400 mg can be toxic
