Abstract:
Objective : To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Morita therapy combined with citalopram in the treatment of obsessive-compulsive disorder(OCD). Methods: Fifty-six patients with OCD were randomized to two groups. The patients (N=28 ) in observed group were treated with Morita therapy combined with citalopram. The patients (N=28 ) in control group were treated with citalopram alone. The efficacy and safety were assessed with Y-BOCS, CGI-SI , HAMD and TESS scales. Results : The scores of Y-BOCS , CGI-SI and HAMD scales in observed group were significantly lower than that in control group at the end of 4 weeks, 8 weeks and 6 month after the treatment (P0.05) . Conclusion: Morita therapy combined with citalopram was more effective than citalopram mono-therapy in the treatment of OCD.
