    Pharmacological action

    Buspisal is an anxiolytic drug, a derivative azaspirodecanedione. The mechanism of action is not established. On pharmacological properties this medication does not apply to benzodiazepines or barbiturates. Buspisal has a selective anxiolytic effect. This medicine has no anticonvulsant activity, it has no myorelaxant action. It has no sedative effects, especially in low doses.
    Buspisal has a high affinity for serotonin 5-HT1A-receptors in the neurons of the dorsal suture, and moderate affinity for dopamine D2-receptors in the brain. Buspirone has no pronounced affinity for the benzodiazepine receptors, it does not affect the binding of GABA.
    Unlike benzodiazepines, the level of spontaneous excitation of noradrenergic cells in locus ceruleus (locus ceruleus) under the action of buspirone increases rather than decreases. These specific differences in the scene due to differences in the development of dependence and tolerance between benzodiazepines and buspirone.
    It is believed that Buspisal does not cause tolerance, physical or psychological dependence.

    Pharmacokinetics

    After oral administration Buspisal is rapidly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract, Cmax plasma levels achieved after 40-90 min. The bioavailability is low due to the pronounced effect in the "first pass" through the liver. When Buspisal is administered together with food it may increase the bioavailability of buspirone due to violation of absorption from the gastrointestinal tract and therefore reduce the first-pass clearance.
    The binding of buspirone to plasma proteins is about 95%. This medication is subjected to intensive metabolism in the liver, with the participation of isoenzyme CYP3A4. As a result of hydroxylation is produced several inactive metabolites, oxidative dealkylation leads to the formation of 1-(2-pyrimidinyl)-piperazine, which has anxiolytic activity. T1/2 of buspirone is typically 2-4 hours, but the end of T1/2 may be 11 hours. Buspisal derived mainly as metabolites in the urine, as well as in feces.
