Thank you. How do you take the buspirone as needed? Do you take 1-3 doses one day and then not take it until you feel you need it again? I was advised by my doctor that it would not be effective when not taken consistently. Does it work for you as needed?

You are correct. Buspirone must be taken regularly. It won't work "as needed". As a level of the drug needs to be sustained in the bloodstream to have good and effective results.

Hello, I take one tablet at a time. I usually just take it and if I feel that I still need it 8 hours later I will take another one. You are right about having a consistent dose in your body for it to work. But, I have found that taking it my way helps me. You will have to see what works for you. But, please talk with a doctor prior to making changes to any of your medications. I hope this helps you.
