In reply to Anafranil/Chlomipramine users (OCD/anxiety), posted by johnj on September 24, 2007, at 16:55:47
I had been on Anafranil in the past. upto 100mgs. It works; but sedation, dry mouth plus apathy were very troublesome. I gained 20lbs on it within one year. Had to stop in favour of Zoloft.
For OCD, Seroquel works much better if you can tolerate the initial sedation. Or just take a small dose of Anafranil but mix it with an atypical AP like Seroquel or Zyprexa. Taking metformin with this combination will help you regulate your weight.
Best wishes.
