Trintellix For Ocd

Updated

Hi everyone! I have been diagnosed OCD in the past and now I have been prescribed Trintellix to treat my depression symptoms which seems to have worsen by the COVID-19 pandemic, all the strict measures because of the virus and challenging life implications. I am on my 5th day taking Brintellix on a 10mg dose. On this 5th day with Trintellix I am feeling a very slightly better in my mood overall, kind of calmer and relaxed, but so far I have not experienced such a big difference overall. Thank God I have not felt any serious side effect such as nausea, vomiting, or constipation; which was one of my main concerns about the usage of this drug, since many patients that are on it report such side effects as common.

My question to anyone out there is if by having the same or a similar diagnosis as mine (OCD) this medication has proven to be effective to decrease or improve depressive symptoms caused by (OCD), and if indeed this medication has been effective, how much time did it take-or takes- to actually kick in. Thanks!
