Best way would be to get evaluated independently by another practitioner with certain psychological assessment tools, anxiety is frequently comorbid to ocd, but ocd in itself is a severe mental disorder which requires long term treatment with sufficient dosage. Your prescription doesn't suggest dosage of ocd, so in short you need proper reassessment before starting any medicine.

Get re-assessed. It is important that a thorough re-assessment is done followed by medication plan is made. Also to be able to understand why you didn't respond to other medication. 5 years is long and you probably will need to have long term treatment where clonazepam (lonazep) will definitely not modify the disease. So clonazepam can only be a small part of the treatment and nothing beyond. Thanks.

At 68 yrs, this medicine can be taken as long as the patient wants. The side effects are not much as compared to the benefits of taking it.

Hello
you are already on 80 mg fluoxetine. There is no need for buproprion. Sometimes excessoive dosage can lead to switch to mania. Better go for some relaxation exercises and activity scheduling. Thanks.

Yes clonazepam acts on liver It doesnot cause high temperature of body. You suffered from jaundice in 1998 a long time ago. So just relax do not think about this illness.
It does not significantly causes imbalance of bile. Keep tracking your LIVER FUNCTION TESTS at least once in a year.
Advice: Start tapering your lonazep dose and stop with the consultation of your psychiatrist other wise you will be dependant on lonazep.
Be motivated and relax I know that you can sleep without the b...more

Ativan and lonazep belong to same group (benzodiapine).
Its generally irrational to take both of these together on daily basis for any medical condition.
Consult a nearby psychiatrist for making your prescription more rationale.

Its okay. U can continue with it.
But i'll suggest to consult a psychologist as well. We need to try to overcome the issue and also be free from medication. Regards iqra azim
