Buspirone and Xanax are anti-anxiety medications, but they work in completely different ways. While Xanax calms the body by binding with GABA receptors, buspirone acts on serotonin receptors. Unlike Xanax, buspirone is not addictive and causes less sedation than benzos.
Similar, both are used to treat anxiety. Xanax is a benzodiazepine whereas Buspar is a Azaspirodecanedione.
There should be no problems in small doses. Just be careful not to overdose yourself.
yes
Absolutely!
No. There is a huge difference in the Buspar vs Xanax drug classes. While Xanax is one of the benzodiazepines, Buspar has its drug class and is not related to any other anxiolytic. Another difference in the Buspar vs Xanax mechanism of action is that Buspar works not with GABA receptors but triggers serotonin receptors. In terms of effectiveness, both medicines are equally effective in treating anxiety. Although the onset of effects of Buspar vs Xanax drugs is rapid, Xanax has a bigger potential for inducing dependency and side effects. Always consult with the doctor before switching the medication. Only a medical doctor has the right to prescribe, review, or substitute the medication during treatment.

how long does buspar stay in your system
Buspar is a prescription medicine used to treat the symptoms of anxiety disorders. Buspar may be used alone or with other medications. Buspar belongs to a class of drugs called Antianxiety Agents, Anxiolytics, Nonbenzodiazepines.
No, you cannot take ibuprofen with lithium and Buspar and lamictol. There is a drug interaction warning for all NSAIDs for lithium and Buspar.
This is simply not true. Many antidepressants can actually INCREASE anxiety, though your body may vary. Buspar is something worth giving a shot, as well as Benadryl. There are also the old and trusted Klonipin, Xanax, and Ativan, though those have a risk of addiction--particularly Xanax. Most antidepressants help with anxiety. Seroquel is strong stuff.
