Prozac ELIMINATED all of my OCD symptoms....it was amazing! I was on 30-40 mg/day (only took it for two months, stopped because of sexual side effects).
Effexor helped somewhat, but stopped working after a few weeks at the max dose (450 mg).
Remeron, reboxetine, tianeptine, and wellbutrin didn't help my OCD at all. It could be argued that WB made it sligthly worse.
I've been taking zoloft for a month now (75mg/day), and so far my OCD has been worse :-/ I don't really know what to do...I had high hopes seeing as I responded well to prozac, and the sexual side effects of the zoloft are very tolerable...ah well, I think I might just switch to prozac.
