 | | Eskalith is used to treat the manic episodes of manic-depressive illness, a condition in which a person's mood swings from depression to excessive excitement. |
 | | Once the mania subsides, Eskalith treatment may be continued over the long term, at a somewhat lower dosage, to prevent or reduce the intensity of future manic episodes. |
 | | Dosage will vary from one individual to another, but a total of 900 milligrams to 1,200 milligrams per day is typical. |
