Safe Dosages Of Buspar (Top voted first)

Hi out there! I suffer from a panic disorder and am prescribed Zoloft and Buspar. I recently lost my insurance and have not been able to afford my Zoloft, so needless to say, that I have been going through a type of withdrawal. Which, in turn, brings on wild panic attacks. I've my Buspar becasue it's cheaper. My question is, has anyone ever taken the maximum dosage (60 mg) at once to help with the panic attack. I have to take 20mg three times a day. But, I am really struggling and I wonder if taking 40 or 60 mg at once will calm me down. Thanks for the input and the support

Hello, Mase! How are you?

No, taking that much at once is generally not recommended.

Are you getting the generic Zoloft? If so, then it really shouldn't be that expensive.

However, if it, then you may want to ask your doctor about switching to Prozac, it's generic form is on the $4 and $10 list at many pharmacies in the U.S.

I currently take buspar 30 mg twice a day so I do not know if it would be safe to double that at once or not. I am 250 so keep that in mind. I have seen on here that Kava Kava and St. Johns wort as well as sam-e have helped some with the same issues. Good luck try to be patient and count your blessings they are usually more of them than bad things at any one time.
