  • INDICATIONS

    Luvox is indicated for the treatment of obsessions and compulsions in patients with obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD). Luvox is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI). It works by restoring the balance of serotonin, a natural substance in the brain, which helps to decrease anxiety and obsessive or compulsive behavior.

    • Take Luvox by mouth with or without food.
    • Take Luvox at bedtime unless your doctor tells you otherwise.
    • Continue to take Luvox if you feel well. Do not miss any dose.
    • Do not suddenly stop taking Luvox without checking with your doctor. Side effects may occur. They may include mental or mood changes, numbness or tingling of the skin, dizziness, confusion, headache, trouble sleeping, or unusual tiredness. You will be closely monitored when you start Luvox and whenever a change in dose is made.
    • If you miss a dose of Luvox, take it as soon as possible. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular dosing schedule. Do not take 2 doses at once.

    Important safety information:

    • Do not drink alcohol while you are using Luvox.
    • Check with your doctor before you use medicines that may cause drowsiness (eg, sleep aids, muscle relaxers) while you are using Luvox; it may add to their effects. Ask your pharmacist if you have questions about which medicines may cause drowsiness.
    • Several weeks may pass before your symptoms improve. Do NOT take more than the recommended dose, change your dose, or use Luvox for longer than prescribed without checking with your doctor.

Contact the doctor right away if any signs of suicidal thoughts or actions occur.
