[|AI|]  Hello and welcome to Chat Doctor. Thanks for your query. OCD is a usually chronic problem and requeries long term medication. Sometimes medication can lose their efficacy if used irregularly. 60 mg of Fluoxetine is a good dose of the medication. If you are still continuing to have OC symptoms, then other treatment strategies have to be tried. Further treatment options include a change to a different class of anti-obsessive medication or trying psychological and behavioral therapies. I would advise you not to make any treatment decisions or alterations on your own, but consult a psychiatrist near you, so that you can have a detailed psychological assessment and further treatment can be planned accordingly. Wish you all the best.
