Hey everyone. I did a quick search and didn’t really find the information I was looking for. My behavioral health provider started me on buspirone yesterday. She warned me of possible nausea but that was about it. I’ve taken two doses and my heart has been racing, I’m jittery, my stomach is in knots my anxiety is outrageous and I’m physically shaking. Not really any nausea or anything that I expected to feel. Has anyone had a similar experience with this medication? 

Is it normal to experience these symptoms so quickly? This is my first time taking any type of anxiety medication. Other than propranolol for panic attacks. 

I sent a message to my prescriber as well, but I’m trying to see if it’s the Buspirone, or the fact that my focalin for my adhd was a different manufacturer. I have taken the same dosage of focalin for months, and not had these issues, but I changed pharmacies and noticed my focalin was different.
