  1. Hi:  The first medication approved by the FDA for OCD is anafranil. After that, the SSRIs prozac, paxil, luvox, and zoloft were approved. Studies revealed that 75% of patients received at least a little benefit from these medications. See the links below.

    Besides medication, psychotherapy is sometimes helpful. Some claim that cognitive-behavioral therapy is one of the better types of therapy for OCD.

    You listed this in the alternative medicine category, and I wonder if you meant ALT medicine instead of APT medicine.

    See the following for alt medicine approaches to OCD:

    Hope this helps a little.
