A member asked:
How long should someone take faverin for ocd ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Fluvoxamine: Faverin is another name for the generic fluvoxamine, which has much research supporting its use in ocd. It can be taken safely for long periods of time, with doses adjusted by your physician according to your symptoms. I don't know how long you've been on it yet, but if your doctor has prescribed it i hope you'll work with him/her for a good trial. Best wishes.
