Buspirone generally:

Do not drink a lot of grapefruit juice or eat grapefruit because you may have more side effects from buspirone.

It is best to avoid alcohol when taking buspirone. The risk of dizziness may be increased if you drink alcohol while taking buspirone.

I found the following information regarding interactions with Buspirone and herbal supplements:

Do not use the following:

Jamaica Dogwood
Kava Kava
Lavender
Valerian

Primary Ingredients in Zantrex Black:

Guarańa = No ⬌ drug interactions was found
Damiana = No ⬌ drug interactions was found

However, this does not necessarily mean no drug interactions exist. Always consult your healthcare provider.

Green Tea = No interaction
Yerba Maté = Unable to determine
Asian Ginseng = No interaction
