**Due to slow renal clearing, lithium toxicity may occur when taking Benicar (or verapamil).** Lithium blood levels should be monitored very closely by your Dr (perhaps weekly when Benicar is started) and then regularly as long as you are on the MP. We recommend Members not change their Lithium dose without the consent and supervision of their doctor. | **Due to slow renal clearing, lithium toxicity may occur when taking Benicar (or verapamil).** Lithium blood levels should be monitored very closely by your Dr (perhaps weekly when Benicar is started) and then regularly as long as you are on the MP.
