Paxil for OCD

What is the dose of paxil for OCD?

Paxil also works for OCD and the dose is 40 mg daily. This is slightly higher than the starting dose for depression. You may have to stay on the drug for a few weeks to see the benefits. However, it does work well for OCD but does not cure the disorder. Remember, if you go off the drug, your symptoms will return. OCD can seriously make life unpleasant and finding the right drug is often difficult.
