A 62 year old woman presented with a long history of obsessive-compulsive disorder, the symptoms of which were not adequately controlled by oral clomipramine. The patient was started on intravenous clomipramine. Drug levels of both clomipramine and its active metabolite desmethylclomipramine were measured. Symptoms were controlled during her hospital stay. A three year follow-up report indicated the patient is doing well with no evidence of obsessive-compulsive or depressive symptoms. A discussion of the blood levels obtained and the caution to be exercised during intravenous administration is presented.
