Re: Buspirone (BUSPAR) cause fatigue?

Another question to add to this thread -- has anyone had fatigue, cloudy-headedness, etc. when beginning Buspar? I had this horrible exhaustion for a few days when I started it, so I stopped. I'm wondering if I should give it a try again, maybe starting with 1/3 of a pill instead of 1/2.

Also, I am on Prozac now -- would like to try the combo.

Thanks for your responses.


> > Does anyone have experiences in adding Buspar to an SSRI. There are very different opinions about buspirone as an adjungt (augmentation) to SSRIS. I guess my Paxil pooped out after a few weeks on 30 mg...now on 40 mg I feel no difference. My doc mentioned buspirone as an adjunct.
