A member asked:

Wife started buspar (buspirone) 6 days ago. she feels a rythmic pulsing in her head for about an hour after taking the pill. is this common with buspar (buspirone)?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Headache is common: Headache is a common side effect of Buspar (buspirone) which first comes to mind as you describe the symptom. She may also want to check if she's taking any other medication that there is no cross reaction going on between it and other drugs she's taking as that could also be happening. Drugs that interact and can also cause side effects of headache include erythromycin, itraconozole, trazodone, and rifampin.
