Abstract

Obsessive-compulsive disorder is a fascinating and troubling clinical problem that is now believed to be relatively common. New approaches to research are beginning to unlock its secrets and explore its biological underpinnings. Drugs such as fluoxetine hydrochloride (Prozac) and clomipramine hydrochloride (Anafranil) now offer hope for improvement in the lives of affected persons.
