- Print the PDF or show it on your phone — present it at any pharmacy in the EU to collect the medication. This includes any pharmacy in France, Germany, Italy, Portugal, Netherlands, Belgium, Austria, Ireland, and more.
Who qualifies for online OCD treatment
Our EU-licensed doctors follow strict guidelines to determine if online OCD treatment is appropriate. They look for a confirmed diagnosis of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder and will assess your medical history, current symptoms, and any previous treatments. Contraindications or specific health conditions might mean that online treatment isn't suitable, and the doctor will inform you if that's the case. The doctor always acts in your best interest.
What OCD medication actually does (and doesn't do)
Medications for OCD, primarily Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs), work by balancing neurotransmitters in the brain, particularly serotonin. This can help reduce the frequency and intensity of obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviours. It's important to understand that medication helps manage symptoms but typically doesn't “cure” OCD. Realistic timelines mean it can take several weeks for the full effects to be felt, and ongoing treatment is often necessary for sustained relief. Medication is often most effective when combined with therapy, such as CBT or ERP.
Side effects and when to stop
Like all medications, those prescribed for OCD can have side effects. Common ones include nausea, insomnia, dizziness, and sexual dysfunction, especially in the initial weeks of treatment. It's crucial to report any persistent or severe side effects to a doctor. Red flags that might indicate you should stop or adjust your medication include worsening anxiety, agitation, panic attacks, or any unusual changes in mood or behaviour. Your prescribing doctor will provide detailed information and guidance on managing side effects and when to seek further medical advice.
