"this is a great medication! i started off on 5 mg which didn&#039;t do much at all, so then i was bumped up to 10 mg and also put on 25 mg of zoloft. i take buspirone 3 times a day whenever i feel anxious and it works so well for me. the only side effect that i have experienced with this are slight brain zaps, however they went away for me in 3-4 days! i recommend this highly."
