Sagar Karia, Shivanshu Shrivastava, Avinash De Sousa, Nilesh Shah

Abstract :

Olfactory Reference Syndrome (ORS) is a psychiatric condition characterized by persistent preoccupation about body odor accompanied by social and occupational impairment. It has not been given separate diagnosis in both DSM–IV TR and ICD–10. Though it has been described around the world for over a century there are very few cases of it seen. Here we report a case of ORS in a female who was successfully treated with blonanserin and escitalopram.
