Buspin

Buspin (Buspirone Hydrochloride) is widely used for anxiety (GAD). It is an anxiolytic that is believed to work by modifiying the activity of various neurotransmitters in the brain so as to provide relief from anxiety. This medicine is different from other anxiolytic agents due to the fact that it doesn`t act as an anticonvulsant or muscle relaxant. The active ingredient belongs to the azapirone class of chemicals and it is known to act on the serotonin receptors. Experts have theorized that it may work by decreasing neurotransmitter activity in the brain so as to relieve anxiety.

Buspin (Buspirone Hydrochloride) tablets are available as 5mg and 10mg strength versions. They are administered orally. Your physician will need to conduct a medical checkup to assess the suitability of treatment and decide upon the correct dosage. Adult patients being given this medicine for anxiety may be instructed by their physician to begin with 5mg taken 3 times per day. The physician might determine that an adjustment to the daily dosage is necessary in some cases. Patients will be required to only take the amount of medicine that their physician directs them to take.
