PRESCRIPTION DRUG
Buspirone hydrochloride tablets are indicated for the management of anxiety disorders or the short-term relief of the symptoms of anxiety. Anxiety or tension associated with the stress of everyday life usually does not require treatment with an anxiolytic. The efficacy of buspirone has been demonstrated in controlled clinical trials of outpatients whose diagnosis roughly corresponds to Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD). Many of the patients enrolled in these studies also had coexisting depressive symptoms and buspirone relieved anxiety in the presence of these coexisting depressive symptoms. The patients evaluated in these studies had experienced symptoms for periods of 1 month to over 1 year prior to the study, with an average symptom duration of 6 months. Generalized Anxiety Disorder (300.02) is described in the American Psychiatric Association’s Diagnostic and Statistical Manual, III1 as follows: Generalized, persistent anxiety (of at least 1 month continual duration), manifested by symptoms from three

BUSPIRONE HYDROCHLORIDE- BUSPIRONE HYDROCHLORIDE TABLET ETHEX ---------- DESCRIPTION Buspirone hydrochloride, USP is an antianxiety agent that is not chemically or pharmacologically related to the benzodiazepines, barbiturates, or other sedative/anxiolytic drugs. Buspirone hydrochloride is a white crystalline, water soluble compound with a molecular weight of 422.0. Chemically, buspirone hydrochloride is 8-[4-[4-(2-pyrimidinyl)-1-piperazinyl]butyl]-8- azaspiro[4.5]decane-7,9-dione monohydrochloride. The empirical formula C H N O • HCl is represented by the following structural formula: Buspirone hydrochloride is supplied as tablets for oral administration containing 5 mg, 10 mg, or 15 mg of buspirone hydrochloride, USP, (equivalent to 4.6 mg, 9.1 mg, and 13.7 mg of buspirone free base respectively). The 5-mg and 10-mg tablets are scored so they can be bisected. Thus, the 5-mg tablet can also provide a 2.5-mg dose, and the 10-mg tablet can provide a 5-mg dose. The 15 mg tablet is provided in a bi/tri-segmented tablet design. This tablet is scored so it can be either bisected or trisected. Thus, a single tablet can provide the following doses: 15 mg (entire tablet), 10 mg (two-thirds of a tablet), 7.5 mg (one-half of a tablet), or 5 mg (one-third of a tablet). Buspirone hydrochloride tablets contain the following inactive ingredients: alumina hydrate, colloidal silicon dioxide, lactose monohydrate, magnesium stearate, microcrystalline cellulose, sodium starch glycolate, and D&C yellow no.10 lake. CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY The mechanism of action of buspirone is unknown. Buspirone differs from typical benzodiazepine anxiolytics in that it does not exert anticonvulsant or muscle relaxant effects. It also lacks the prominent sedative effect that is associated with more typical anxiolytics. _In vitro_ preclinical studies have shown that buspirone has a high affinity for serotonin (5-HT ) receptors. Buspirone has no significant affinity for benzodiazepine receptors and does not affect GABA binding _in vitro_ or _in vivo_ Přečtěte si celý dokument
