Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hi,

Desvenlafaxine is a good antidepressant drug but if the problems are OCD, rumination and mood issues then other drugs like Fluoxetine or Clomipramine or Paroxetine, etc., should be kept in options. These drugs have great efficacy and have good actions in controlling the OCD symptoms. You can talk with your psychiatrist for these drugs.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Seikhoo Bishnoi
