Buspirone, the main component of Spitomin, is a serotonin receptor agonist and a dopamine receptor antagonist. It works by binding to serotonin receptors and modulating their activity, resulting in a calming effect on the central nervous system. This mechanism of action differs from benzodiazepines, making buspirone a preferred choice for some patients due to its lower risk of dependence and tolerance.
Clinical trials have shown that Spitomin (buspirone) tablets 10 mg are well-tolerated and effective in reducing symptoms of anxiety disorders. In a comparative study published in the Journal of Clinical Psychiatry, buspirone was found to be as effective as benzodiazepines in treating GAD, with a lower risk of cognitive impairment and withdrawal symptoms.
