Psychiatric evaluation and medications don’t work like that, like a person says ocd and take this. A detailed evaluation needs to be done. Consult a psychiatrist. Good luck

No, they can have interactions. Better to discuss with your treating psychiatrist about treatment options and dose monitoring. Behavioral therapy also helps with OCD.
