Thanks for your query. OCD is a disorder characterised by repetitive thoughts or images or doubts that is usually followed by repetitive actions as well. Salipax is fluoxetine a standard drug for the disorder. It is a safe drug but the side effects include an initial increase in anxiety symptoms and headache as well as sleep difficulty. What is of concern to me is repeated suicidal thoughts. It is possible for severe depression to coexist with OCD. Hence I suggest meeting your psychiatrist again for evaluation of depress ion as well. If required the drug can be escalate d to higher dose as Salipax is also a drug for depression. Inpatient treatment can be considered since you have repeated self harm ideation.
