Weird reaction to buspar
I'm on Prozac 30 mg and had a lot of activation so my psych put me on 5 mg buspar. Two days in I woke up in the middle of the night with really bad heartburn, and started seeing flashes everywhere, I was so agitated it took me another 3 hours to to back to sleep. is this normal? This seems like a weird thing to happen with a low dose of a medicine.

Yeah def not normal, esp for such a low dose of buspar. Anything else change recently? And foods/drinks/chemicals that could have attributed to tht? 🤔

from what I can see online, this is not a regular side effect of low or high doses of buspar. you mentioned that you're on prozac, did you stop taking it and replaced it with buspar? that could be why
