OCD for 15 Yr old boy
My son is 15yrs old and he is having OCD he was under medication PRODEP 60MG AND Frisium 5mg once daily. There is only marginal improvement so Dr has changed the medication to PAROXETINE PROLONGED RELEASE TABLETS 12.5mg and ARIFINE 2.5MG TABLET HALF ONCE DAILY AT Night. I'm very worried about the medicines that are changed. Is there any ayurvedic treatment for this. Please advise
