for 5 long years, you have been living with ocd. If you can continue to live with it, worry about side effects of fluoxetine. If you want your quality of your life to improve without ocd, please put to test whether you develop these googled side effects or not. Please continue to take fluoxetine as long as the doctor has prescribed. Please go back to her/him without stopping, to increase the dose - weighing the effect and side effect.

If formula 1, cars can't reach you to a place, can small cars do the same. You seem to be having resistant symptoms and very high potency drugs including clozapine have been given. 5htpn and l tyrosine are very very weak over the counter health supplements which are very expensive and lack much efficacy. Better come to terms with the illness and aim to select the medication group which gives best relief amongst the one which you have mentioned in consult with your psychiatrist. Good luck.

There are many medications that are used for ocd and prodep 20 is one of them.

I think there is need to optimise your treatment and enhance your social connections. I know it is difficult to find a meaningful reason to live sometimes. But it is a transient phase, keep calm and contact your paychiatrist for optimising your treatment and take cbt sessions from psychologist which will help you restructure your thoughts and thereby you shall know what to do for a living once you are better. All the best.

No, fluoxetine does not decrease your bp. Headache is a temporary side effect of fluoxetine and it will go away within the first week. If the headache lasts longer, you can contact psychiatrist to change the medication.

Dear lybrate-user,
You should address your question to an Ayurveda doctor. Otherwise because of the word 'OCD' it comes to me, a psychiatrist.
Our way of OCD management is to prescribe Fluoxetine kind of medication at higher dose for many months, may be years. These medicines do not cause weight gain. Check out other causes of weight gain in your case.
We may add a psychotherapy to it, if necessary. I may take you up for cognitive therapy at your thinking level, with ERP (exposure an...more
