Fluvoxamine is used for:

Treating obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). It may also be used for other conditions as determined by your doctor.

Fluvoxamine is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) type of antidepressant. It works by increasing the activity of a naturally occurring chemical in the brain called serotonin, which affects behavior.

Do NOT use Fluvoxamine if:

• you are allergic to any ingredient in Fluvoxamine
• you are taking alosetron, cisapride, cyproheptadine, dextromethorphan, fenfluramine and its derivatives, pimozide, astemizole, terfenadine, tramadol, l-tryptophan, a phenothiazine (eg, thioridazine), sibutramine, St. John's wort, or tizanidine
• you are taking or have taken a monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitor (eg, phenelzine) within the last 14 days

Contact your doctor or health care provider right away if any of these apply to you.
