In Hong Kong, clomipramine is commonly used to treat severe depression and obsessive-compulsive symptoms. Patients should follow their doctor's advice when taking clomipramine and have regular follow-up visits to monitor efficacy and adverse reactions.

Clomipramine may cause some common side effects, such as dizziness, dry mouth, and constipation. Some discomfort may occur when you first start using this medication, but it usually lessens within a few weeks.
