Buspirone, a non-benzodiazepine anxiolytic, have even demonstrated enhancement of sexual function in certain individuals. For this reason, they have been proposed as augmentation agents (antidotes) or substitution agents in patients with emerging sexual dysfunction after treatment with antidepressants.
Additionally, pretreatment with the 5‐HT1A agonist buspirone (20 mg p.o.) markedly attenuates the visual effects of psilocybin in human volunteers.59 Although buspirone failed to completely block the hallucinogenic effects of psilocybin, the limited inhibition is not necessarily surprising because buspirone is a low efficacy 5‐HT1A partial agonist.60 The level of 5‐HT1A activation produced by buspirone may not be sufficient to completely counteract the stimulation of 5‐HT2A receptors by psilocin (the active metabolite of psilocybin). Another consideration is that psilocin acts as a 5‐HT1A agonist.30 If 5‐HT1A activation by psilocin buffers its hallucinogenic effects similar to DMT58 then competition between psilocin and a weaker partial agonist such as buspirone would limit attenuation of the hallucinogenic response.
As reported in rats, studies have also demonstrated a functional relationship between 5-HT1A and 5-HT2A receptors in mice [95], [133], [186], [192]. For example, 8-OH-DPAT has been shown to attenuate head twitches induced by 5-HTP or DOI [100], [133], [162], while the partial 5-HT1A agonist buspirone has been shown to increase head twitches induced by 5-HTP plus pargyline [190].
