Hello,
Tab. Frext (Fluoxamine) 100 mg is an Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor and is a good drug to be used for OCD, However it seems your symptoms are not controlled adequately with the dose, so increase in dose can be considered after consulting the treating psychiatrist. You can go upto 300 mg of Frext under supervision of your psychiatrist. Apart from it Tab. Clonazepam 0.5 mg can be added to control other anxiety symptoms.
Hope the answer is helpful.
Let know if any other query.
Regards.
