Buspar Dosage Decrease Then Increase After 2 Days (Top voted first)

Updated

Hi. Anyone experience lowering your dose of BuSpar to 40 mg from 45, then back up to 45 in 2 days? Is it like starting over again? I'm having increased anxiety.

No, just lowering the dose for a couple days, then returning to the original amount would not be like starting over, since you were still taking it.

However, you should know that some increased anxiety should be expected, when your dose is lowered, things should improve, once your body adjusts to the new, lower dosage.

Has your doctor approved of you changing your dose?

The FDA lists the typical side effects of Buspar as possibly including nausea, dizziness, mood changes, headache, and excitement.
