Dr Steven Poskar: Medications for OCD (#510)

In episode 510 I chat with Dr Steven Poskar. Steven is a psychiatrist and clinical director of OCD NYC. He is also a member of the Scientific and Clinical Advisory Board of the International OCD Foundation.

We discuss his therapy journey, myths and misconceptions around OCD medication, SSRIs for OCD, choosing an SSRI based on their side effect profiles, weaning off medication, augmenting medication for OCD with anti psychotics, glutamate medications for OCD, benzodiazepines, psychedelic drug trials for OCD, cannabis, some reasons why medication doesn't work, supplements, and much more. Hope it helps.
