HiThanks for healthcare magicIn OCD, we use anti-obsessional drugs like fluoxetine, fluvoxamine or clomipramine. Usually we start with one drug at a time and gradually increases the dose. In your son case, both drugs at minimum dose, better to increased one to higher level and then start another. I would suggest increase dose of fluvoxamine 50 to 300 mg gradually according to symptoms and then add clomipramine. Rest, you can discuss with psychiatrist.Thanks
