Treatment of severe obsessive-compulsive disorder with fluvoxamine

L H Price et al. Am J Psychiatry. 1987 Aug.

Abstract

Ten obsessive-compulsive patients received single-blind treatment with fluvoxamine, a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor, for several weeks following at least 2 weeks of placebo. The group showed significant improvement, as measured by several clinical scales and self-ratings; six patients were judged responders. Fluvoxamine appears effective in treating severe obsessive-compulsive disorder.
