What special dietary instructions should I follow?
Lithium may cause an upset stomach. Take lithium with food or milk. Drink at least 8-12 glasses of water or another beverage each day (unless your doctor tells you otherwise) and use a moderate amount of salt on your food. However, if your doctor puts you on a low-salt or low-sodium diet, follow it. Avoid drinking beverages with caffeine, such as tea, coffee, cola, or chocolate milk.

Risperdal
I have been diagnosed as bi-polar. I am not sure if that is exactly what i am though. In my understanding bi polar patients go through stages of mania and depression. I however do not actually cycle. I am just tired and pissed off all the time. I do not feel that I am sad or depressed......I am ANGRY! I fly off the handle al the time and feel like hurting people. Can any one suggest anything to help me? Right now I am on Lithium and Wellbutrin and Seroquil at bed time. Not helping! Prozac did not work or Paxil..do you think Risperdol is for me?

Production of Trazadone
See answer above. That is how I arrived at this board. But I don't get it. This might not be the manufacturer? Perhaps we need to research Pharmaceutical World or trazodone + .com.
Trazodone is the generic name for desyrel.
I think the drug is so old that whoever manufactured desyrel doesn't anymore as I did enter desyrel + .com and came up with nothing using MSN search. Hmm......
But do check out this cool link which I found here (!) too regarding all generic drugs:
