Lithium orotate(Cas 5266-20-6) Usage
Description | Lithium orotate is a salt of orotic acid and lithium. |
Purification Methods |
The salt is soluble in H2O at 17o and 100o. Best to acidify an aqueous solution of the salt, isolate the free acid (see above) which is recrystallised from H2O (as monohydrate) m 345-347o (345-346o), then dissolve it in EtOH, add an equivalent amount of LiOH in EtOH and evaporate. Its solubility in H2O is 1.28% (17o) and 2.34% (100o).

Uses | Lithium orotate gets inside of neurons, affecting their inner workings in ways that can greatly benefit mood. It supports the brain's natural detoxification process and promotes the natural balance of brain neurotransmitters. Even in microdoses, lithium orotate can help calm brain activity and promote mood stability. |

Different pharmacokinetics of lithium orotate inform why it is more potent, effective, and less toxic than lithium carbonate in a mouse model of mania

Intriguingly, lithium orotate (LiOr) is suggested to possess unique uptake characteristics that would allow for reduced dosing and mitigation of toxicity concerns. We hypothesized that due to differences in pharmacokinetics, LiOr is more potent with reduced adverse effects.
