Data on the efficacy of antipsychotics as monotherapy for obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) are inadequate. This report presents the case of a patient with OCD that was successfully treated with risperidone as monotherapy.

This report suggests the beneficial effect of risperidone for a patient with OCD comorbid with schizoaffective disorder.
