NICE is updating its national guidelines for OCD and BDD.
Its existing guidance sets out routes to more intensive, specialist care when initial treatment hasn’t been enough.
OCD Action believes treatment for OCD and BDD shouldn’t stop when treatment doesn’t work.
It includes no recommendations for people who remain unwell after initial treatment. At a time when people already spend years fighting for the right care, this could leave them with even fewer routes to help.
NICE can still change this
The draft hasn’t been published yet.
No one should be left without a clear path forward when initial treatment isn’t enough.
Tell NICE: don’t publish the guideline as it stands.
Tell NICE to include clear recommendations for further treatment in its updated guidelines
