In contrast, of 22 self-poisoned patients with peak serum lithium concentrations above the therapeutic range only 3 developed toxicity.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>4 The mean admission plasma urea concentration in patients with therapeutic intoxication was higher than in self-poisoned patients and the mean admission plasma bicarbonate concentration was lower.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>5 The mean serum lithium half-life in 8 patients with therapeutic intoxication was considerably longer than in 5 self-poisoned patients.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>6 Renal lithium clearance is enhanced by increased sodium excretion and we recommend that lithium toxicity be treated with saline diuresis and frusemide if fluid retention occurs.
