id="Buspirone.Introduction"><h3>Introduction</h3><p>Buspirone is a psychoactive drug used for management of general anxiety disorders and alleviation of the symptoms of anxiety. Despite wide scale use, it is an infrequent cause of serum enzyme elevations and has not been linked to instances of clinically apparent liver injury with jaundice.</p></div><div id="Buspirone.Background"><h3>Background</h3><p>Buspirone (bue spye' rone) is an azapirone antianxiety medication that has little or no similarity to the benzodiazepines or barbiturates in its structure or mechanism of action. Buspirone appears to interact with dopamine and serotonin receptors, but its precise mechanism of action in alleviating anxiety is not known. Buspirone was approved for use in the United States in 1986. Current indications are for the treatment of generalized anxiety disorder and amelioration of the symptoms of anxiety. It has been used off label for depression (often in combination with other agents) and as treatment for substance abuse, posttraumatic stress syndrome, bruxism, tardive dyskinesia and other psychiatric and neurological conditions, but its efficacy in these situations has not been proven. Buspirone is available in tablets of 5, 10, 15 and 30 mg in several generic forms and under the brand name Buspar. Typical doses are 15 to 30 mg daily in divided doses. Side effects may include drowsiness, headache, nausea, abdominal discomfort and rash.</p></div><div id="Buspirone.Hepatotoxicity"><h3>Hepatotoxicity</h3><p>Buspirone has been associated with infrequent serum aminotransferase elevations, but has not been linked to instances of clinically apparent liver injury in the published literature. Indeed, buspirone is often used as a control, noncytotoxic agent in assessment of other psychotropic drugs in vitro and in vivo. Buspirone is, nevertheless, metabolized in the liver by the P450 system (CYP 3A4) and has the potential of causing drug-drug interactions.</p><p>Likelihood score: E (unlikely cause of clinically apparent liver injury).</p><p>Drug Class: <a href="/books/n/livertox/Sedatives_Hypnotics/?report=reader">Sedatives and Hypnotics</a>, Miscellaneous</p></div></div><div id="Buspirone.PRODUCT_INFORMATION"><h2 id="_Buspirone_PRODUCT_INFORMATION_">PRODUCT INFORMATION</h2><div id="Buspirone.BPI" class="box boxed-text-box whole_rhythm hide-overflow"><p>
