FAA Certification with Lithium
A UK pilot said to ask this question here.
I am an FAA Commercial Pilot with Multi and Instrument Ratings.
I was diagnosed as Bipolar and now take 600 mg of Lithium daily. Does anyone know what the FAA position is on this condition. Can I still get medically certified?
Any info would be helpful.
Thanks

Not while you're on the medication!
