| 5 | | 4/20/2001 | 5 | | 10/6/2007 | 5 | Anxiety, Panic Attacks | Slight drowseyness | Buspar has helped me for years with anxiety. I take 20mg at night because of the sleep inducing effects. Other than asprin, this is the most important drug I take. | M | 3 years | 9/9/2007 | 5 | Anxiety | After switching doctors, I had my new doctor to try me out on this medication. As, I wanted to taper off of taking Xanax (which was prescribed for me to take 4 times a day) and only begin taking it as needed. I have been taking this medication for a month and half thus far. I am on the lowest dosage that they offer, as I consider myself to have a sensitive stomach and alot of pills don't sit well with my stomach at all. I do take this medication with food, just like I do with most pills that I take. When I first started taking these pills, I did get these random bouts of dizziness, it would actually cause my body to suddenly start feeling anxious for no reason.And, I did experience bouts of nausea as well. Because I regularly take Phenergan (Promethazine Syrup), for the motion sickness and vertigo that I suffer from, I was able to take that and it really helped with alleviating the nausea and dizziness.The longer that I have been taking these pills, the more the side effects have real | F | 46 days 5mg 2X day | 10/16/2014 | 5 | Anxiety attacks | No side effects. Doctor started me on Lexapro which was horrible and I still had anxiety attacks. Buspar helped within 48 hours. Could not believe. Fantastic medication. And you do not feel like you are taking anything. | Fantastic drug. Immediately helped anxiety within 2 days. Felt like myself again | F | 30 days 5 mg 3X day | 1/13/2016 | 4 | 1 days | 1/10/2016 | 4 | Anxiety | Headaches, dizziness | It seems to be working. I feel more "levelheaded". I don't dread everything from morning til night like I've been doing all of my life. The anxiety about everyday things has lessened....work and all it involves, the kids , money, asteroids falling from the sky. The headaches are bad but I've had a mild to moderate headache everyday since I can remember so.........I'll stick with Buspar. It can only get better. | F | 1 months | 8/30/2009 | 4 | fgjfdjdfgjh | fgjfgjgfjfgj | gfjjfgjfgj | | 2/12/2005 | 4 | anxiety | | 5/16/2004 | 4 | | 1/14/2003 | 3 | Anxiety | M | | 10/7/2002 | 3 | anxiety | none | M | 30 days | 7/16/2002 | 3 | | 7/6/2005 | 3 | | 2/1/2005 | 3 | | 4/26/2002 | 3 | googd | ffr | ddd | | 3/19/2008 | 3 | Anxiety | Dizziness - Increasing Numbness in both arms and legs | I have learned so much from reading all the posts - now finding out that the Buspar I started about one week ago is causing increased numbness and tingling in both arms and legs - sometimes my face. I had taken buspar several years ago for anxiety and loved it. No side effects. However - this time I experience dizziness with each dose that lasts at least 2-3 hours then - increasing amounts of numbness and tingling that just builds in intensity from the day before. Thanks for all your info - I will be discontinuing my buspar today. Bummer - because it does help with anxiety. | F | 7 days | 6/8/2008 | 2 | anxiety | I have had heart palpitations feeling anxious and irritable but because of some of the post that I've seen on here that I need to give it longer | I would really like to see the people put the manufacturer on here mine is Mylan.I had took buspar before for one week and couldn't even tell that I was taking anything it was a different manufacturer I can't remember the name but this one I could tell the same day big difference between the two manufacturers so I might try to call pharmacy to find out manufacture of the one I took before to see if that help if I took it for about a monththere's a lot of difference in the manufacture | F | 9 days 5 milligra | 12/3/2015 | 2 | anxiety | dizzy after taking dosage | have stopped it becouse i don't think it was helping any | M | 7 months | 3/11/2004 | 1 | It didn't help at all... | 1 years | 10/17/2001 |
