THat's quite a low dose. *Assuming* you're healthy you shouldn't really have to worry TOO much. I was taking 1800mg of Lithium at which point my level was about .80 . Anyway, I've drank at that level a few times and I must've gotten dehydrated and reached a near toxic level; let me tell you, your body will let you know! I can't begin to describe it. It's not like suddenly at 300mg you'll get brain hemmorhaging or something, if you feel strange or have headaches stop taking it or get a test.
Things to keep in mind: Kidney function, Thyroid function, (de)hydration.
