Lithium cost without insurance

Lithium price by strength

A 30 count is 30 units of the product (pills, capsules or the pack size Cost Plus lists), not a promise of 30 days. These are Cost Plus Drugs’ own cash prices, including their pharmacy fee. Shipping is added at their checkout. Pymander adds no fee or markup. Prices checked October 11, 2026 and can change.

Of the 63 medications in the Mental health group with a 30 count price in our catalog, Lithium costs less than 37 of the others. The middle price for that group is $7.45.

What Lithium is

Lithium is a mood stabilizer, one of the oldest and best-studied treatments for bipolar disorder.

What it’s for

Treating and preventing mania and keeping bipolar disorder stable. It also lowers the risk of suicide in people with mood disorders.

How it’s taken

Usually two or three times a day with food, with plenty of water. Regular blood tests check the level, kidneys and thyroid.

Good to know

Boxed warning: too much lithium is poisonous, and a safe level is close to a harmful one. Dehydration, heavy sweating, vomiting or diarrhea, and some drugs (like ibuprofen, certain water pills and some blood pressure pills) can push the level up. Get care fast for shakiness that gets worse, confusion, unsteady walking or ongoing vomiting; call 911 if someone is very confused or hard to wake.
