Hello & welcome to the site pooh

 

Altough buspirone is not a benzodiazépine it is counter indicated to take alcool while being treated with buspirone.

 

Medicamentous interactions Alcohol: With the course  studies in laboratory carried out at volunteers in good health, the buspirone, managed with amounts reaching jusqu' to 20 Mg,  the effects of relatively small quantities  did not accentuate; alcohol on the psychomotor functions. However, one noted a diminution of satisfaction or a dysphorie at the time of  association  alcohol and d' a single amount of 20 Mg of buspirone. In absence of relevant data relative to  concomitant use of higher amounts of buspirone and d' alcohol, it would be important  to indicate to the patients not to drink  alcohol during the treatment by the buspirone.

 

On the other hand why 6 or 7 glasses....
