Buspirone
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 дек 2019
- Buspirone, an anti-anxiety medicine, was FDA approved more than 30 years ago but still ranks among the top 100 prescription drugs in America. Interest in buspirone appears to be undergoing a renaissance as concerns rise about the abuse potential of benzodiazepines: Xanax, Valium, Lorazepam.
Buspirone counteracts generalized anxiety but requires at least several weeks until becoming fully effective. While SSRI antidepressants remain the “preferred” treatment for anxiety, their list of adverse reactions seems far in excess of those associated with buspirone. Additionally buspirone does not cause sexual dysfunction associated with the SSRIs.
Buspirone generally does not cause sedation typical of so many anti-anxiety medicines. Buspirone lacks addictive potential, does not cause euphoria and unlike the benzodiazepines is not a controlled substance.
Thank you for the info. Who else is here because they are anxious about starting this medication?
Meeeeeeee 🙌🙌🙌 ughhhhhh I just want to be normal!
It's great! I was on it for years and abruptly stopped with absolutely no withdrawal!
Also I was on the maximum dose (60mg/day)
If you're after a benzo effect, you will be disappointed. But the reduction in anxiety is amazing.
I am on the day 6 , so far so good 😊
Do not worry about using this medication, it is the safest one
Amazed he talked for so long about one drug. My doctor was like “ I will call in Buspar, follow up in 3 weeks”
Lol same here !! I was like 🙍🏻♀️???
The internet has taught me so much more about medications and health than any doctor.
Doctors even water it down because they assume you wouldn't understand or want a more detailed explanation. Or they are just too lazy... or incompetent.😐
Same here! It’s the first drug I’ll ever be on and that’s all they do, here take it.
He’s amazing 🤩
@@markrobertson2052 or they have 20 more patients to see right after you and dont have time to play 50 questions
I've never seen anyone on RUclips reel off so much information for so long without one single edit.
Right? On 1.75 or less speed they become so much better too
Cheers for the video content! Excuse me for chiming in, I would appreciate your opinion. Have you heard the talk about - Nanackson Guardo Philosophy (just google it)? It is a smashing one of a kind guide for revealing the secret to get rid of panic attacks without the hard work. Ive heard some interesting things about it and my old buddy Taylor after many years got amazing success with it.
Lovely Video clip! Excuse me for butting in, I would love your opinion. Have you researched - Nanackson Guardo Philosophy (do a search on google)? It is a good exclusive product for revealing the secret to get rid of panic attacks without the hard work. Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my work buddy after many years got amazing results with it.
It’s probably meant for physicians.
Hahah
I'm so glad people like this man exist. They make the world a more beautiful place.
You are my first reference for medications. We are very lucky to have you dear Doctor. Thank you 🤗
Great delivery and way better explanation than the drug information that comes with the medication. Really enjoyed the video.
This Doc offers the best medical advice and lays it out in simple terms. He bypasses all the unnecessary medical nomenclature and grammar to give it to you straight!
I love his confidence and information.
Only been on this for 2 weeks but already notice a huge difference! The brain fog and numbness is completely gone. I stopped binge eating too. I don’t feel the need to eat for comfort anymore
You take together with antidepressant?
You are the best in the business on RUclips. Before seeking guidance from my PCP, I turn to your channel first to get a dose of knowledge!
This dude is a stud. Love the way he delivers information.
My gaydar shot up through the roof!
@@blubberbooty bruh 😂😂Nahhh
yes a genius studd or just s stud like u said
This man is very knowledgeable and I haven't commented on a RUclips Video in a year.
WOW! What a knowledgeable human being! Thank you!
Great information. So much more and indepth then alot of other videos. Thank you.
I have never seen a video or read an article in such detail. perfect
Finally!! A well informed, easy to understand video that gives me useful information beyond that which I could just get from a prescription leaflet. .. too many medical "professionals" on here wasting our time, could stand to learn from this channel!
All of doctor's videos are quite informative. Thank you.
Thank you for all the knowledge you’ve provided about the drug. You explained all the questions I had regarding its function & effects on all levels; Including metabolic and secretion.
Thank you for such education. It really makes so much of sense instead of making money. Bless you and we need more Doctors like you in this world
Thank you so much for this informative video. I’ve always had this worry that taking medicine would do more harm than good. And this has lowered my blood pressure and stress levels knowing it’s ok to take it as long I don’t have any bad side effects. A sense of relief thank you so much
This video answered all my questions about potentially taking this medication. VERY informative. Thank you.
I really like this cat! His wealth of knowledge is just awe-inspiring. I was just prescribed it and I WAS a bit nervous about possible side effects, but I feel SO much better about it now..thanks doc! Consider me subbed!
Are you taking it still, if so how is it working??
Have adhd ptsd and GAD. This has been my favorite. SSRIs make me extremely depressed. Stimulates sedate me. I still feel like me on this one.
@Megara024 Did it take long to notice results? Thanks for your positive comment. Would you mind sharing dosage that works for you?
Really appreciate any advice
I hope you did not get hospitalized for psychotic break?
Ugh srris destroy my sexual life I'm trying this on ehope it helps me
The same with Me..I hope all is well. All antidepressants made me worse and caused more problems on top of other problems.
Are you still taking buspar
Thank you. I talked to my doctor about Buspirone today because of your video 💜
Being able to advocate for yourself is key when navigating the mental health system! I applaud you… it’s not easy for everyone to do 👏🏻
Knowledge beyond belief,great job.
Wow that was a pretty intense complete description of this medication. Well done.
Thank you very much!
Thank you for your uniquely positive and knowledgeable description. I learned so much
This doctor is God sent! Truly amazing!
If you would pray to your GOD you would not need a stupid Dr.
A great Dr. We really appreciate you what you do for ppl who have mental health problems
This man is AMAZING!!!!
Best video I have found on this drug! Thank you!
You articulate really nicely. Lots of expression, clarity, and conciseness, with a TOUCH of idiosyncrasy for good measure haha.
This is extremely informationally dense. It's also a concrete narrative that reveals the motivations along the history of this drug's prescription.
Thank you for the wonderful run down!!!!
This is a doctor who loves what he does
Thank you for the explanation. Answered better than my own psychiatrist.
Im so grateful for share your knowledge. You are like this old school professor with awesome domain of psychopharmacology.
You’re a wonderful teacher; thank you so much 🏆
What a wealth of knowledge! Thank you for informing
Thank you for this video. So much wonderful information, exactly what I needed.
You are the best! Thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge.
Jeez this gentleman made me relax 😌.
Very informative and interesting I learned a lot thank you!
I'm pretty sure this guy isn't using a teleprompter. That also makes him freakishly intelligent. Thank you for these amazing videos, Doctor!
He knows his stuff
xxx has the best 👌 for you guys @@Pepi86753
Unfortunately, he died.
For every single drug I’ve been prescribed I look for his videos about it. Thank you Sir, now I don’t have to google for hours and watch 14 different videos 😊
Amazing video. Thank you!
Wow this guy is smart! Thank you for that super detailed explanation. I've just been prescribed this & am hoping that it works well for me.
How is it going for you @ viper?
@@millier9658 It's going well, thanks! I was on a higher dosage, but was getting a few side effects, so I dropped it to a lower one & I seem to be doing very well on it.
Thank you Dr Landow for anther wonderful video explaining everything about it where my GP would just have told me what it's for and write a script!
Wow! Great video! Thank you so much for the information.
You're awesone, doc !!!!!!!
Love the show you do great work I've been on this for about 5 years it really helped
does it cause an increase in appetite?
how many mg? what's wrong with all these people not responding to questions?
videos like this should be attached on the medication manual
Autonomic Nervous System Hyperactivity. I have every single one of the symptoms. Sweating, heart pounding very heavily, drymouth, light-headedness, forgetting where I'm going in an area I am totally familiar with, upset stomach, highly frequent urination, increased heart rate. The doctor gave me a prescription for Buspirone but it is only (2) 5 mg doses twice a day. Shaky, jittery, jumpy. Hit the nail on the head. After watching this I now know that the dosage is just about right. Thank you for giving out this info. You talked in plain English and I was able to understand everything you were saying. That's a rare trait in doctors nowadays.
John Allen so how is the Buspirone working for you? And do you have any side effects?
I have Dysautonomia or Autonomic Nervous System Dysfunction and this drug helps alot in conjunction with about 9 others I take.
Hey dude, this help you?
Hey Dr Kenneth, words can not describe how some of us folks feel you brought every single aspect into terms we can Understand So much Appreciated
Excellent information. Thank you!
Wow- thank you so much for explaining all this!
You’re amazing. I love hearing you talk! Thank you!
Come here needing information...ending up staying just to listen to this guy talk lol
Very helpful, thank you!
Thanks Dr. Ken!!
Very informative and helpful! Very understandable! Thank you Dr...
I've had such a great experience with Busprione. It was so odd immediately feeling no anxiety and I started to live a much more normal life. Please give it a try and I sincerely hope it works for you all ❤️
I just started 15mg yesterday. ❤
❤❤❤❤❤
@@summerberry5055 how are you doing on it?
And you combine with what antidepreasant?
@@summerberry5055how is it for you
This stuff is awesome. I suffered from severe anxiety and it has worked perfectly for me
How long did it take for you to see results?
@@vpoftoiletpapersales1202 For me I immediately felt a slight relief after a few days. I take zoloft and the buspar. Its been a few weeks now and I feel even better.
@@jefephysique1did it affect you sexually. I heard it helps
Thank you so much for this information!
I like this information it's very important to know what after effects you have behind any medication so thank you
Earned my sub and looking forward to continue learning. Keep on keeping on Dr.L
Well done with your I formation thank you!
Im on 15 mg Buspirone, 60 mg Cymbalta & 200 mg Seroquel per day.
Buspar for anxiety, Cymbalta for depression & Seroquel for depression & hypomania. Your videos have been very helpful
I know he mentioned not using buspirone for OCD but cymbalta and buspirone work wonders and stops anxiety in it's tracks
Take another drug!!
polydrugged much?
This man is brillant!
You give very good explanations, things the doctor doesn't always tell you, because there is so much to know! And your voice is very soothing I think, makes it easier to absorb the info.
It would be awesome if you had some diagrams, for all of us visual learners
Thank you so much for this
My reaction to SSRI meds was severe hives. I am feeling hopeful about this medication.
This was very informative, thank you
Great video thank you Dr.
Thank you🙏🏾
Most informative videos ever LIKE AND SUBSCRIBED!!!
Thank you 😊
Absolute best information ive found after weeks of research. Very well explained! Ive been on it for 2 months now at 5mg 3x a day. Ive had next to no side effects and it is actually helping. Ive noticed when something occurs that would normally have me spiraling mentally and feeling like my heart will explode for weeks at a time (yes, over one incident, or even a thought of worry, or even for no reason), that I can remain calm, think it through, and ignore it if I wish. Thank you!
Just a placebo effect. Buspirone is worthless.
@@disenchantedgoddess1020 you found it did not help
@@garysimone4977 they dont even take it they are on all the buspar videos saying it is a placebo they just want people to stay in fear with a tiny bit of research you can find out really fast that it is not a placebo
@@benjaminsimpson9544 si is this a med worth trying to take then
@@garysimone4977 if your doctor told you to take it then yes take it
Thank you for this review
Dude is a genius
Why? Because he can read a teleprompter?
@@intheworldbutnotofit8002 Yeah, boy I wish I could read a teleprompter that well. Teleprompter master he is...mmmm yes
dud? Did you and good doctor lead the sheep to pasture together?
I had so much anxiety I couldn't walk down the street or cross the street. After 3 weeks I am feeling a bit better, but not 100%. I look forward to seeing what happens after the 4th week.
How you feeling now?
@@tatianagustamante5754 actually I switched to zoloft and feel so much better. Buspar was ok but not at all calming and doesn’t affect depression
Thank you!
God bless you Doctor. Your wonderful.
Thank, DR You Are very Very VeryGoog at what you Do THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING ON U TUBE GOD BLESS YOU ALSO
How do I become your student?? I’ve been to great colleges, seen many videos on RUclips from so-called experts, and you see by FAR the most knowledgeable. Very intelligent video, and I feel like I understand the drug 200x more. You are seriously the best. Are you a college professor, doctor or psychiatrist??
Thank you.
Thanks doc!
may be mistaken but I believe this gentleman passed away last year. incredible presentation.
He did! What a genius doctor he was. They don't make them like this anymore. Wish he was my doc..
Just started this today. Have PTSD (military) and anxiety. Hope it helps!
Is it helping? How r u now ?
thank you doctor
I would really like information on Latuda if possible. Thank you..
He said to stay away from it if your dependent on opioids ? i am dependent and the buspirone doesn't seem to be working at all.
Been taking this for a bit its very good. 💪🏻💪🏻
Hello, everyone, I have been taking buspar for about 3 weeks now. I suffer from joint pain and I don't know why but whenever I take astaxanthin along with the buspar, it seems to make the buspar more potent or more effective. Can a doctor please study this to confirm? I also take clonazapem and whenever I take my astaxanthing with the buspar, I feel as if I'm fine without the clonazapem for the day. can a doctor or scientist please confirm this?
Been taking it for 4 weeks now. It definitely is working. I was getting really bad anxiety out of nowhere.. and it was ruining my day to day life.. work.. everything. So far I am very happy with it. I quit drinking also.. not that I was dependent on alcohol before taking it but I like to party with friends and I'm Irish so when we get going it's kinda hard to slow down. Binge drinking was fun but now that I'm taking this buspirone I feel like alcohol makes the anxiety worse if you drink with it. I don't need alcohol to enjoy life.. rather take the medicine as prescribed and avoid alcohol to live anxiety free. Wayyyy better option and Losing weight from not drinking is a plus! 💪💪💪 If anyone has any questions I'll be happy to try and help. I know how bad anxiety sucks and I don't wish that sh!t on anyone.
Great video! I've watched this twice now. So much great information. 👍
I just started this I have anxiety even over taken meds and so far I think this has not many side effects!
When you first started this did it increase your anxiety? I was taking 7.5 twice/ day and at 40 min after taking it I was nauseous and in a full blown panic attack. My dr called me in 5 mg for twice a day until I felt ready to bump up to 7.5. I’m having anxiety about taking the anxiety medicine in fear of that happening again 🤣 I’m thinking of breaking apart my 5mg tab to 2.5mg to start there.
@@bookswithjenna I was afraid to take it too. So much so I took 2.5mg in the am the first week, then I did 2.5mg in the am and pm second week, then I did 5mg in the am and 2.5 in the pm. I found that that was my sweet spot (my anxiety is worse in the morning) so I am staying with that dose with the approval if my dr. She said I prob wouldnt notice any changes at 2.5 because the dose was so low, but that's the schedule we came up with because I was afraid of the side effects. It helps so much that a lot of times I forget to take my nightly dose bc I'm just living my life. I hope this helps and you give it a chance...
@@debbielynnsmellowminutesme7909 I haven't experienced many side effects.. one side effect is I might feel a little light headed but I also take it on an empty stomach. They say you should take it the same way everyday either on an empty stomach or with food. But you should keep it a routine. I take it on empty stomach and wait 30 mins before eating. I also only take it in the morning. I stopped taking it at night.
@@bookswithjenna
They say you should take it the same way everyday either on an empty stomach or with food. But you should keep it a routine. I take it on empty stomach and wait 30 mins before eating. I have also skipped the nighttime dose.. I only take 5mg in the morning. If I start feeling any sort of anxiety I squeeze my left thumbnail 25 times with my right index finger and thumb, then I squeeze and hold the sides of left thumb nail (cuticles) for 25 seconds.. there's a nerve that runs from your thumbnail to the middle of your brain and this will almost instantly relax you. Remember.. the only reason you're having anxiety is because the serotonin and dopamine levels are not equal.. one is higher than the other. Think about what you eat and drink everyday. Energy drinks, caffeine and SUGAR FREE drinks are bad for anxiety.. I have found out doing my own research that artificial sweeteners are bad for your nervous system. I drink lots of spring water and occasionally drink a soda or juice.. but when I do it's the real deal not that diet crap.
Thank you
Thanks you for the video😁
Remarkable doctor. This is a man with photogenic memory. Look at his eyes scrolling through previous studies and readings around 16:00. I could only wish to have his memory and recollection of information. Very impressive.
He was a remarkably good doc
@@7inchdestroyer959sorry to hear he’s passed
finally, you said something good about a drug.
This Doc is, thankfully so it seems, a walking encylopedia of psychotropic drug medication.
