Examining the Usage of Dopamine Blockers in OCD Patients

We examine the usage of Dopamine blockers in OCD patients. We want to examine their frequency of usage, compare the course of the disease between those who receive and those who do not receive Dopamine blockers, and efficacy of the treatment.

The study will be done in two stages: 1. Collecting information the usage of Dopamine blockers from 150 OCD patients' files. 2. interviewing 60-70 patients to see the difference those who receive and those who do not receive Dopamine blockers in their current severity of disease.
