Has anyone has succuss with being on both Lexapro and Buspar? In February we have upped my Lexapro to 20mg in morning and last week we upped Buspar 30mg 2x a day. I've been on both of them for years, but anxiety has gotten worse around being trapped in a situation and have a harder time controlling my anxious thoughts that cause me to panic.

I'm in therapy bi-weekly, but self-talk and coping skills don't seem to help much because I can't stop myself form overthinking about the physical discomfort I'm feeling or not being able to leave a situation at work when off site with a client

So I've been on buspar as a secondary anxiety med since 2019 and we have slowly increased it.

A week ago we upped it to 30mg 2x a day. Since then I noticed a slight discomfort in my throat on an off during the day as well as slight nausea for about a hour after eating.

Did anyone else get similar side effects and have them go away? I do have GERD so I already take 2 anti acids daily.
