Hi.. Thanks for sharing your concern.. It's hardly 3 days since augmentation to percieve any visible improvement in OCD.. Jumping to a decision of stopping the meds Will not be a good idea! Please do talk to your treating consultant in detail for further plan of management and other available options

Hello, usually it does take some time for the medicine to get its desired effect. So just wait or you can consult another psychiatrist for a second opinion.
