Has anyone out there had bad reactions to the medication Buspar?
My doctor prescribed it to me and I took it for 3 days, the way he instructed, and I've somehow gotten depressed, chills, the hair on my head sometimes feels like its standing on end, I start crying for no reason. I hate Buspar! I have a follow-up appt. in a couple days, but I was wondering about other's experiences with this drug?

As with any prescribed medicine, if you are experiencing side effects (even those unlisted on the drug information), speak with your doctor immediately! That's what the doctor is paid to do, it is so important that people do that.
Anna Nicole's son died of drug interactions that may have been avoidable, but was a very tragic accident. Please be careful with any antidepressants.
now, onto the question.
I have no direct experience with Buspar, but from the looks of it, you might want to look at th drug information that was with the medicine when you left the pharmacy.
I found the link below which is a printable Acrobat version.
There's a list of potential drug interactions on there (page 2 of 7, on the right), make sure you read carefully and avoid taking anything listed as potention interaction drug!
The side effects are on the second link, with a full range, depression being a rare side effect.
Good luck! It's always difficult to be on medicine for emotional/mental wellbeing!
