Acute effects of buspirone and alcohol on psychomotor skills

This study explores the acute effects of [ブスピロン] and [アルコール] on [精神運動技能]. The authors found that buspirone, even at higher doses, did not impair objective performance but did cause drowsiness and fatigue. However, buspirone did not interact with alcohol, unlike lorazepam, which impaired psychomotor skills and interacted with alcohol. These findings offer insights into the potential impact of buspirone and alcohol on psychomotor skills.
