Implementation

• Do not confuse buspirone with bupropion

» Patients changing from other antianxiety agents should receive gradually decreasing doses. Buspirone will not prevent withdrawal symptoms

• PO: May be administered with food to minimize gastric irritation. Food slows but does not alter extent of absorption
