Hi,
Hives or urticaria can result from higher level of lithium. It is advised to meet the treating doctor immediately so that the level of lithium can be maintained. You can give benadryl by mouth for immediate relief. Kinldy check for the toxicity of lithium in term of any tremors or systemic symptoms for which an urgent care is needed.
