Luvox?

by autumnsky, Oct 22, 2009 07:05AM

Has anyone on here been on Luvox? I asked my doc if I could be on it, I've done some research on it and it seems like it works great for OCD. She said it would take about 2 weeks to work. I have OCD and have a fears that I once molested a child....they feel so real and horrible. I'm on other meds as well for this including anxiety. I just wanted to know if anyone on here has been on it and if so how you're doing with it. Thanks.

Hi, I was taking luvox, great for ocd , but i was allergic , flu symtoms and hives, I am on prozac which I find incredible for intrusive thoughts. I also added a small dose of effexor.

I took the generic of Luvox and it seemed to help. Good Luck if you try it.
