Can anyone recommend a good medication for OCD?

I've been taking Prozac for many years for this but I still have obsessions with my health and I did have obsessions with people in the past until my health took the place of that. I just want to get better from this. It's hard to run and Google different medical conditions whenever something pops into my head. If anyone has any suggestions I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you!

I can’t recommend anything from personal experience but Luvox and Anafranil are supposed to be good. In most cases those two drugs shouldn’t be taken together though but hopefully one of them works for you. Or maybe your doctor has another idea. You have options. Fingers crossed you get your OCD under control!

I used clomipramine for depression for many years but it does also help OCD. It certainly would be worth trying it although side effects are tough but they disappear . Hope this helps and remember you are a strong person.
