| buspirone is an anxiolytic drug. However, it is only used when the pt. does not respond to SSRIs/SNRIs. Note: that it is not used to treat severe anxiety, panic disorders, and acute anxiety attack Buspirone think: "i am less anxious on the bus" it works as it is a partial 5-HT1A agonist, so it reduces excessive serotonin transmission. It does take 3-7 days to see initial effects adn can take 3-4 weeks to see optimal effects so it is delayed onset adverese effects: DD = dizziness and drowsiness |
