Anxiety medication dosage concern
Dr prescribed me buspirone 7.5mg 2x a day for 3 days and then to increase to 1 15mg pill daily. I see the standard is to take this medicine 2 to 3 times a day so why did my dr prescribe my full dose for 1 time a day?

Hello
Please check if your medicine is slow release or Sustained Release . These formulations slowly release the medicine so OD is enough
