Obsessive compulsive disorder, or OCD, is a condition where unwanted thoughts and repeated behaviours can affect daily life, and treatment usually needs to be continued for a stable period even after you start feeling better. It is a positive sign that your symptoms have improved, but feeling better does not always mean the condition is fully controlled, and stopping or reducing medicines too early can sometimes lead to a return of symptoms. Regarding your medicines, Feliz S 10 and Lonazep 0.5 are commonly used to manage OCD and anxiety symptoms. Reducing the dose on your own is not considered safe. Any change, including lowering the dose to 5 mg or 0.25 mg, should be done only if advised by your doctor, as these medicines usually need gradual tapering under supervision to avoid withdrawal symptoms or relapse. It is best to discuss your improvement with your doctor, who can decide the right time and safe way to reduce the dose. Meanwhile, continue your medicines as prescribed and focus on stress management, regular sleep, and therapy if advised, as these can help maintain long-term stability.
