buspirone and Diffuse Myofascial Pain Syndrome

buspirone has been researched along with Diffuse Myofascial Pain Syndrome in 1 studies

Buspirone: An anxiolytic agent and serotonin receptor agonist belonging to the azaspirodecanedione class of compounds. Its structure is unrelated to those of the BENZODIAZAPINES, but it has an efficacy comparable to DIAZEPAM.
buspirone : An azaspiro compound that is 8-azaspiro[4.5]decane-7,9-dione substituted at the nitrogen atom by a 4-(piperazin-1-yl)butyl group which in turn is substituted by a pyrimidin-2-yl group at the N(4) position.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Based on the assumption that fibromyalgia is more strongly related to stress and anxiety than affective spectrum disorders, we hypothesized that compared to population controls, fibromyalgia patients should demonstrate an increased prolactin response (DA sensitivity) to buspirone challenge test, but no difference in hypothermic response or GH release (5HT sensitivity)."7.72Altered dopamine D2 receptor function in fibromyalgia patients: a neuroendocrine study with buspirone in women with fibromyalgia compared to female population based controls. ( Aakvaag, A; Lund, A; Malt, EA; Olafsson, S; Ursin, H, 2003)
