In reply to any other OCD drug other than SSRI?, posted by rianny on January 23, 2004, at 16:56:13
as far as i know, the only other med used for OCD other than the SSRI's is called Anafranil (clomipramine). Its called an tricyclic. Its an old school antidepressant and has been around for years. However, it does have bad side effects so thats why people like the ssri's for their ocd than anafranil. Did you ever think of giving Luvox a longer trial period. I have bad OCD and Anxiety myself and it took up to 12 weeks before i noticed any difference. It takes longer to work with antidepressants for OCD. I take 300 mgs.
