I have a complaint like songs are playing in my head always when I heard any song. This creates a disturbance for me while I am in work and unable to concentrate on that. Sometimes will get irritation and feels depressed. For that I went to a psychiatrist, he said those feelings are obsessions and suggested me flunil and clonil antidepressants. I am using this medicine from the past one year and under doctor suggestion still, I am continuing this prescription. Firstly they started the dosage from 20 - 30 to 40 and by seeing the positive results they decreased from 40, 30 to 20. Right now I am at 20 doses. Frankly speaking, these medicines shows better output for me. But have few side effects. Anyway, those effects are negligible. Later on, I came to know that allopathy medicines are just controlling the disease and they will not cure the disorder completely whereas homeopathy will cure the disorder of the root and will cure it completely. So I went to homeopathy and they had given me some medicines. I am using these from the past 2 months. 1. The question is can I use both medicines parallel? 2. Here homeopathy doctor is saying that do not make a habit of using anti-depressants for a long time as you will get addicted in future. So he said to use these anti-depressants in alternate days instead of daily use and later on gradually decrease using those pills. Just confirm me is it the right solution as what homeopathy doctor suggested me? Which doctor decision I need to follow. Homeopathy or allopathy?

Dear Hariteja, Many patients are in confusion about various pathis available in India. i can answer only for allopathy. You have already taken the consultation of homeopathy. You are the best person to take a decision. OCD is a chronic disorder needing long term treatment. Both flunil and clonil are useful tablets for you. You have found benefit and side effects are negligible. i don't understand your need to get confused for more pathis to add. Both flunil and clonil are NOT habit forming. You may easily stop them even if you have few more tablets with you. That is not the case with habit forming addictive drugs. These drugs don't cure the OCD. (Actually allopathic doctors don't cure diabetes or hypertension or thyroid problems. They only see that these problems don't affect your life badly). With flunil and clonil you can concentrate on your work better, you don't get irritated or depressed. That helps you to ignore the songs in your head yourself - that is what you want.
