Clinical Psychopharmacology Seminar Obsessive Compulsive Disorder Pharmacotherapy Original Author: Vicki Ellingrod, Pharm.D., BCPP Latest Reviser: Vicki Ellingrod, Pharm.D., BCPP and Janice Worsham Creation Date: 1996 Last Revision Date: June 2005 Peer Review Status: Internally Peer Reviewed INTRODUCTION DIAGNOSIS AND CLINICAL PRESENTATION PATHOPHYSIOLOGY The true pathophysiology of OCD is unknown at this time, but many theories have surfaced which are based on what we know has been effective to treat this disease and our knowledge of how these medications work. The role of serotonin (5HT) has been highly questioned and investigated. Since medications that are serotonin reuptake inhibitors have been shown to be effective in OCD, it is believed that changes in 5HT function are critical for the treatment of this disease, and perhaps also play a role in the pathophysiology of the disease. The role of serotonin in OCD has been demonstrated in studies using serotonin agonists and antagonists. M-CPP is a 5-HT 1C receptor agonist that also bind to 5-HT2, 5-HT1A, and 5-HT1B receptors. Administering this compound causes acute exacerbations of OCD symptoms, while fenfluramine, which is a 5-HT presynaptic agonist, does not exacerbate symptoms (Chouinard 1992). PHARMACOTHERAPY SEROTONIN REUPTAKE INHIBITORS CLOMIPRAMINE CMI has been studied in at least 21 different controlled trials for the treatment of OCD. In 8 of these trials CMI was tested against placebo alone while in the remainder CMI was tested against other medications such as the SRIs, the TCAs, clonazepam and diphenhydramine. The majority of these studies are summarized in Table One.

OBSESSIVE-COMPULSIVE DISORDER (OCD) The purpose of this information is to explain Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder. We hope that it may help you to decide if you may have this disorder. It suggests a reasonable approach to promote proper detection and treatment of OCD. This is intended for educational information only. Treatment for appendicitis is not a 'do it yourself' project. Neither is treatment for OCD. If you believe, after reading this, that you might have OCD, you should see your physician who can either diagnose and treat you, or refer you to a specialist. A CASE HISTORY Bob saw his psychiatrist for treatment of depression for six months before he finally had the courage to bring up his other 'secret' problem. Since childhood he had a compulsion to count things. He had to count the letters in words and in people's names. If the letters added up to any number except 9 he felt a sense of release and could stop counting. He knew it was silly but nevertheless he had a fear that if he did not do this something bad could happen to his mom or dad. He seemed unable to stop doing this. He did poorly in school because he was distracted by his secret compulsion to count letters when he should have been paying attention to the teacher's lessons. He was later bothered as a teenager by upsetting sacrilegious mental images when he was in church. Having these sacrilegious images made him feel that he lost his soul for eternity.

During the past 10 years, researchers have advanced our understanding of the brain and vastly expanded the capability of mental health professionals to diagnose, treat, and prevent mental and brain disorders. Now, in the 1990s, which the President and Congress have declared the "Decade of the Brain," we stand at the threshold of a new era in brain and behavioral sciences. Through research, we will learn even more about mental disorders such as depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, panic disorder, and obsessive- compulsive disorder. And we will be able to use this knowledge to develop new therapies that can help more people overcome mental illness.

OCD - Obsessive Compulsive Disorder frequently disappears with the proper use of EFT – download free manual. It often works where nothing else will. New discovery allows quality, lasting relief without drugs or years of therapy – gain freedom from those unwanted behaviors and difficult situations. David Willis reports a successful "hand washing OCD", or Obsessive Compulsive Disorder , case with a 4 year old. Please note that several techniques were usedamong them being NLP, reframing and EFT. Practitioners often blend EFT with other techniques and usually report enhanced because of the blend. I work part time as a consultant and NLP therapist at a private mental health facility in North Carollina. I received your EFT training materials about three weeks ago and have begun to utilize the techniques. The Director of the clinic received a call concerning a four-year-old who had developed an OCD or obsessive compulsive disorder that manifests itself as repeated hand washings. The youngster was washing his hands over thirty times an evening and would rage and cry if restrained from the ritual washings. The parents were distraught and were on the verge of panic. I was asked if I would see the youngster and I subsequently scheduled an appointment. I talked with the mother beforehand and discussed with her the importance of immediately allowing the behaviors to occur without the parents attaching any unusual notice to the washings, to act as if everything was normal. This reduced the traumatic effects to the youngster and in effect desensitized the behavior.
