I don't if there's any. Also, not everyone who has bipolar is on lithium.
Ask whoever diagnosed them as bipolar!! How do you know their medicine? It is up to the professional to check compliance with meds. THE BIGGEST problem is that if they don't feel they need it, probably won't take it!! Some people like their off base minds, however skewed they may be. Is yours a true concern or just an observation?? Good luck helping them.

Connect them to a bettery charger. If they are on lithium, they will have more energy. If not, they will get hot and possibly explode.
Read it on a rechargeable battery.
If the person is denying being bi-polar, maybe they aren't or maybe they haven't been diagnoses yet. Maybe the person is denying it because it's none of your business.
A blood test. But not all bipolar patients take lithium, and if the person is in denial they may not be taking any meds at all, even if they are prescribed.
