Real world experience of Endoxifen augmentation therapy in a case of resistant OCD

Abstract

About 40%–60% of obsessive-compulsive disorder patients do not achieve full remission even when treated with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor and cognitive behavioural therapy. Here, we describe a case of a 30-year-old female suffering from OCD, who was not improved even after fluoxetine 80 mg per day and behavioural therapy and was successfully treated with low dose fluoxetine (60 mg/day) and Endoxifen (8 mg/day).
