NCT00986128

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the initial (after 1-week of maintenance dosing) and extended (after 3-weeks of maintenance dosing) effect of topiramate, at doses up to 600 mg/day, on the steady-state pharmacokinetics (absorption, distribution and excretion of the drug by the body) of lithium carbonate in patients with bipolar disorders.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • To evaluate the potential pharmacokinetic interaction between topiramate and lithium in patients with bipolar disorders

    In each sampling period, blood (lithium and topiramate concentrations) is collected pre-dose and at 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 12 hours post-morning dose, and urine (lithium concentration) was collected at 0-2, 2-4, 4-8, and 8-12 hours postdose

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • No Secondary Outcomes

Study Arms (2)

EXPERIMENTAL
Drug: topiramate
