antibiotic for OCD?

Posted by g_g_g_unit on May 14, 2013, at 0:32:14

Does anyone think an antibiotic might be able to assist in OCD? I know there's the whole PANDAS link, but I was speaking to a woman whose son was asymptomatic for strep and experienced a dramatic remission on Augmentin XR. There's a pilot trial being conducted on monocycline and OCD -- since one of its MOA's seems to be glutamate modulation, that's bound to be a good thing, right (c.f. Memantine et. al.)?

Unfortunately, I can't get any GPs I've seen on board with the idea.
