The doctor will start him on a low dose at first and go up from there.It all depends how your son responds to this drug. This is a great drug if monitored, not only by you. To make sure he takes it and by the doctor to see if your son needs less or more.
I wish you the best

He has taken other antidepressants and Seroquel at the lowest dose, but it hasn't helped his OCD. I read online that with OCD, you often have to take a higher dose (up to 200mg) to see improvements. I was wondering if anyone else had that experience?
