OCD problem

2026-08-03 15:45:39
I have severe OCD. i was taking uvox cr 200 mg, risdone ls at night and clonotril 0.5 mg at night but to no effect. So my doctor changed the medicines and gave me serta 100 mg twice a day, clonil sr 75 mg, risdone ls twice a day and rexipra forte 20 mg at night. What i have seen is that except risdone ls all 3 contain serotonin. Will my body be able to process this much serotonin? Should i take this medicines or change it? Pls help me

I understand your concern, and it's completely reasonable to wonder about taking multiple medicines that affect serotonin. In OCD, psychiatrists sometimes prescribe combinations of medications temporarily or during medication changes, and this does not necessarily mean your body will have "too much serotonin." These medicines should only be taken exactly as prescribed, and you should not stop or change them on your own. If you develop symptoms like high fever, severe restlessness, muscle stiffness, tremors, or confusion, seek urgent medical attention and contact your psychiatrist immediately. Otherwise, discuss your concerns with your treating doctor, who knows your complete history and can explain the rationale behind this combination.
