Buspar (buspirone) may be used: In conjunction with another SSRI or SNRI, like cymbalta (duloxetine) in the hopes of mitigating sexual side effects related to the SNRI. Typically, Buspar (buspirone) has v limited side effects, but rarely SEs may include dizziness, drowsiness, nervousness, headache, or nausea. Time 2 resolution of SEs will depend on which you're experiencing. Discuss new SEs with ur doc 2 feel btr ASAP!
