Dear Sanjeev,
No medicine is safe for all the persons taking it. We have to weigh the benefit vs safety.
Having said that, the diazepam is not very safe in the long run. It is NOT an antidepressant tablet. It is prescribed to reduce your anxiety and make your muscles to relax. Whereas fluoxetine is better if it has beneficial effects on you. Please discuss with your doctor.

Dear Mr. lybrate-user, delayed ejaculation is often a side effect of ssri or selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors like fluoxetine (flunil) and sertraline (zosert). Change of medications will solve his problem. Do not stop the medications suddenly, it requires tapering down gradually and gradual changeover to other group. Consult psychiatrist for this process.

Hello
you may be aware that ocd can be a chronic condition which can be more prominent during stressful periods. Ocd can be effectively managed by a combination of medication and psychological therapy like cbt. You have been on prodep (fluoxetine) for few years with certain degree of benefit. Have you ever had cbt? Cognitive behavioural therapy (cbt) will be beneficial to control ocd symptoms. Kindly check with your doctor about availability of cbt in your city.

Flunil (fluoxetine) is a good medicine for treatment of OCD. Usual dosage for OCD is 40-80 mg/day. Some people have gastric irritation with it, and the upper abdominal pain may be because of it. Such pain usually is relieved by taking Antacids. There are some other medications available for OCD which may not cause gastric irritation. You should discuss this with your Psychiatrist who will guide you further.
