Buspirone: a worldwide update.

Buspirone is an anxiolytic drug from the azapirone family of molecules. It differs chemically and pharmacologically from the benzodiazepines. Although its profile of efficacy is comparable with that of benzodiazepines, it produces less drowsiness, less psychomotor impairment, less alcohol potentiation, and has less potential for addiction or abuse.

A study of buspirone coprescribed with bronchodilators in 82 anxious ambulatory patients.

This was an open multicenter study wherein patients requiring anxiolytic therapy were treated with buspirone 5 mg t.i.d.
