Buspirone

Buspirone 5mg, 10mg, 15mg, 30mg

Buspirone is an anxiolytic medication primarily used to treat generalized anxiety disorder (GAD). It works by affecting certain neurotransmitters in the brain, particularly serotonin and dopamine, to help alleviate anxiety symptoms without the sedative effects associated with other anxiolytics. Buspirone is typically taken on a regular basis and is known for its lower risk of dependence, making it a suitable option for long-term anxiety management.

Description

Buspirone is an anxiolytic medication primarily used for the treatment of anxiety disorders. It acts on the brain’s serotonin and dopamine receptors, helping to alleviate symptoms of anxiety without the sedative effects commonly associated with other anti-anxiety medications.
