A member asked:
On lithium(level 0.73),divalproex sodium(500mg), olanzapine(15mg). which is likely to be causing my cognitive impairment, and confusion while speaking?

Maybe: These are three medications that surely can occasionally affect cognition. You need to have a open heart discussion with your doctors, he/she might has strong reason for above three medications.
