How is Keppra helping my OCD?

Posted by Phidippus on November 2, 2009, at 14:35:38

OK, so I've got treatment resistant OCD and have gotten on a cocktail that's good but there's still a lot of OCD. Is something in my cocktail working against me:

Dexedrine 40 mg
Geodon 80 mg
Keppra 1500 mg
Lexapro 20 mg

DEXEDRINE - Do actions on seratonin and glutamate levels help treat the OCD?

GEODON - What does it mean when a medication binds to certain receptor sites?

From studies I've read 5HT2C and 5HT1D receptors, but not 5HT1A, may be involved in OCD. Does Geodon's antagonims of 5ht2c and 5ht1d make it a succesful as treatment for me or is the dopamine regulation?

Does d-Amphetamines and Geodon's effect on noradrenaline work against the OCD?

Keppra - believe it or not, this medication has helped me manage my OCD better and I have no idea why. Anyone want to take a guess?

Lexapro - Do SSRIs improve OCD symptoms through seratonin action or because of glutamate modulation?
