Safely Buy Buspar ( Buspirone ) from Canada Prescriptions Plus.

Indications

Buspar is an anxiolytic medication used to help relieve symptoms of anxiety and depression. The medication works by stimulating serotonin to help calm symptoms associated with generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) such as fear, tension, irritability, dizziness, and pounding heartbeat.

Buspirone is from the azapirone family and is the first nonbenzodiazepine anxiolytic to be used for generalized anxiety disorder. While it differs from these more common anxiolytics, Buspar has been found to have comparable efficacy and produces less side effects.

This medication works differently than conventional anxiolytics and has a more gradual action without instant euphoria or sedation. Buspirone does, however, work as effectively and produces less drowsiness and psychomotor impairment.
