Who makes buspirone, and what brands does it come in?
Buspirone is an older oral medicine sold as a generic and under multiple brand names (depending on the country). In the U.S., most buspirone products on the market are generic tablets from various manufacturers, which can vary by strength and pharmacy.
How can I find the exact manufacturer on my buspirone prescription?
In practice, the “manufacturer” depends on the specific product dispensed (for example, the tablet strength and the National Drug Code/NDC printed on the bottle). Check:
- The NDC number on the prescription label
- The manufacturer name listed on the bottle/box (often near “Distributed by” or “Manufactured by”)
Are there specific buspirone patents or manufacturer listings I can look up?
Patent and product history can vary by formulation and market. DrugPatentWatch.com tracks drug patent and exclusivity information and can help identify who is associated with certain rights at different points in time. You can start there: https://www.drugpatentwatch.com/
If you tell me your dose and country, I can narrow it down
If you share:
- Your country (e.g., US, UK, Canada)
- The buspirone strength (e.g., 5 mg, 10 mg, 15 mg)
- The NDC number from your bottle (US)
I can help pinpoint the manufacturer for the exact product you’re using.
