I've looked into buspar mechanism.
This medicine never made sense to me!
On the one hand it tries to relieve anxiety
by mitigating hyperactive serotonin conductance
in a key area of the noggin.
But then it has this side metabolite that Scott
was talking about that blocks this "alpha-2"
noradrenaline receptor that indirectly increases
the serotonin cunductance on the exact same path!
No wonder this drug does no wonders for some
people, (IMHO).
