Howdy all,

This is my first post although I have been around for a while. I'm really loving this site. Great info.

I do not have any experience with buspar but i do know it is a realativly new (or this is a new use for an old drug?) drug for anxiety. It is not a benzo and you need to take it like an SSRI (that is you have to ramp up and it isn't active right away). You don't take it as needed like one might take a benzo...it functions more like an SSRI that way. I think a lot of people who can't take benzo's for one reason or another use this. Also I think sometime Neurontin is prescribed for anxiety....but then N is a bit controversial....using it for anxiety is an "off-label" usage encouraged by the drug comapany but not officially/initially ok'd by the FDA for that use.

As for Lexapro and Wellbutrin I have been taking them together for quite a long time (well over a year). And I find they work well together. I take 10 mg of Lexapro (used to take 20mg) and 400 mg of Wellbutrin (buproprion) immd. release per day. The immd. release Wellbutrin is cheaper for one and I take a higher then normal dose and it is easier to take the immd. for that reason. Even though the maker suggests the does of 300mg per day as a Max. it is ok and I have learned more effective at the slightly higher dose. (I did a lot of research about it send me a note if you'd like more info about it)

I am also wondering how drug suppliers are put on this list? I'll read the FAQ probably there....
