A member asked:
What is the right inositol dosage for mild ocd and how many times a day to take it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Vitamin B8: How was this diagnosed? If you made the decision, don't forget that you could be wrong. But, you'd need to be evaluated by an experienced psychotherapist to know more clearly what bothers you. The supplement has been helpful for OCD at 18 grams/day. http://www.webmd.com/vitamins-supplements/ingredientmono-299-INOSITOL.aspx?activeIngredientId=299&activeIngredientName=INOSITOL. Consider therapy too.
