buspirone: I suffer from Panic Disorder, which I inherited from my mother and grandmother and passed on to both of my daughters. I also have Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. When I was a lot younger, a doctor tried to put me on Buspar, but it made me feel like I was going to pass out with every breath, so I made up my mind that I hated it. Now that I'm in my 50's and Xanax (my medicine of choice) has practically been outlawed, I have started taking Buspar again. My blood pressure is normally running a lot higher now. Buspar, along with Effexor are working fairly well for both conditions. 1 user(s) found this comment helpful. Did you? Yes No Report as inappropriate

buspirone: I suffer from severe panic attacks. The primary symptoms being racing heartbeat, inability to think and sweating. When an attack happens, it comes on rapidly, and often during important work situations. I have been on Buspirone for approximately 3 months. The first two months I was taking 10 mg two times a day. Once at 9:00 a.m. and another at 2:00 p.m. At this dosage, I would still get panic attacks but the severity was not as great. So, when I have an attack, my heart races less, my mind is less cloudy and the sweating not as dramatic. My doctor tells me this is due to the dosage, which we have changed today to 15 mg two times a day, on the same time schedule. My hope is that this change will have the desired effect. 2 user(s) found this comment helpful. Did you? Yes No Report as inappropriate

BuSpar (buspirone): This medication is great, it gave me no side effects at all. Although it takes time to reach its full therapeutic effect its worth the wait. This medication helps me calm down reduces agitation, anxiety, and panic. For me it has been better than the other faster acting drugs for agitation, anxiety, panic that I've tried in the past. 13 user(s) found this comment helpful. Did you? Yes No Report as inappropriate
