I am diagnosed with OCD. My treatment is on the final phase where m feeding on FLUVOXIN CR 100 twice a day (morning & night). But the symptoms are not fully treated. I mean I still have OCD traits that trouble me often. Plus my mental IQ has been lowered significantly during the treatment. I forget many things so often and my memory has gone worst. I want back my earlier intelligence. Atleast I was happy with it. Rather than being dumb sort of a guy. M really worried. please help.

Dear lybrate-user. Welcome to lybrate. Ocd medications cannot reduce your iq. No misconceptions please. Ocd is treated with a combination of psychotherapy and medicine. Once you learn to manage symptoms, medicines can be stopped easily. Consult a psychologist. Take care.
