Best med for Pure O and panic disorder
« on: February 02, 2012, 01:02:22 PM »
Hello Everyone. I am new to this site. My name is Holly. I am currently on Pristiq and feel like it doesnt help that much for my obsessive "what if" thoughts and my panic. Can anyone recommend a medication that has helped them with Pure O and panic. Thank you very much! God Bless!

I would recommend high dose SSRI. Generally folk with OCD / HA / Pure O require higher doses of the SSRI's.

Discuss this with your doctor obviously!

Keep us posted Holly:)

some people have excellent luck with luvox. it's an old med, but tried and true and one of the best out there for OCD.

Yes a very good point by Daisy. Luvox is well tested. My GP swears by a strong dose of Parox - Paxil in the states.
