Abstract
Lithium is a drug that has been used in the treatment of bipolar disorder for many years. Due to its narrow therapeutic range, systemic side effects can be seen frequently. Serious side effects can occur even in non-toxic doses. We present a case of parkinsonism and encephalopathy developed in a patient with normal lithium blood level who used lithium and risperidone combination therapy for bipolar disease.
