Excessive blinking

2020-10-26 01:50:22
I am suffering from ocd. I am on medication sertraline 100 mg. But due to medicine, my eyes are dry and excessive blinking. Should i change the medicine or take eye drops. Other medicine like fluoxetine, fluvoxamine, paroxetine don't work in my case.

As you have stated sertraline has suited you you should continue with it. You can try eye drops and giving rest to eyes in between.  There are options other than SSRI medicine that you have mentioned. Discuss with your psychiatrist.
