Posted on Tue, 5 Sep 2017
Question: Week 1 on low dose buspar and found numbness in bottom lip and knees. Not too bad just sitting, but im an avid runner- training for 1st marathon. The numbess just gets a bit worse while running, esp after mile 6. Does this happen to go away after a few weeks? Other than that no side effects.

2-3 weeks

Detailed Answer:
Dear sir,

I have gone through your question and I understand your concerns but usually buspar side effects lasts from 2-4 weeks until your body gets used to the medication. Once this happens, the side effects start to gradually fade away until they disappear completely.

I hope I answered your question .
