The effectiveness of Buspar in long-term use, that is, for more than 3 to 4 weeks, has not been demonstrated in controlled trials. There is no body of evidence available that systematically addresses the appropriate duration of treatment for GAD. However, in a study of long-term use of Buspar, 264 patients were treated with Buspar for 1 year without ill effect. Therefore, the physician who elects to use Buspar for extended periods should periodically reassess the usefulness of the drug for the individual patient.
