Simultaneous measurement of plasma, RBC, and plasma lithium concentrations took place with 17 inpatients chronically treated with lithium, at various times after the last lithium dose. RBC lithium levels were significantly higher than CSF lithium levels. Specimens drawn 10 or more hours after the last dose showed higher RBC and CSF lithium and lower plasma lithium than specimens drawn 4 or less hours after the last lithium dose. None of the lithium measurements differentiated manic-depressives from schizophrenics or schizoaffectives. Plasma, RBC, and CSF lithium all intercorrelated highly and equally.
