Serotonin syndrome has been attributed to the combination of buspirone and sertraline. 

A 49-year-old man had major adverse effects 11 days after taking a combination of sertraline, buspirone, and loxapine (25). The adverse effects were characteristic of the serotonin syndrome, which is characterized by a constellation of symptoms, including hypomania, agitation, seizures, confusion, restlessness, hyper-reflexia, tremor, myoclonus, ataxia, incoordination, anxiety, double vision, fever, shivering, variable effects on blood pressure, nausea and vomiting, sweating, and diarrhea.

Level II results showed that patients who failed to benefit from SSRI treatment (citalopram) are good candidates for augmentation (with sustained-release bupropion or with Buspirone) or switching (to sustained-release bupropion or sertraline or sustained-release venlafaxine—three antidepressants with different mechanisms of action). One third of the patients in each group reached remission. Thus, overall, after two well-delivered (robust doses and sufficient duration) medication treatment courses (results for the group who received CBT were not published yet) about 50% of the patients achieved full remission of symptoms. Results from Levels III and IV were not yet available at this time. Once results of all four levels are added up we will have at our disposal an antidepressant roadmap to follow. We will also learn of the percentage of patients who, in spite of these systematic efforts, are still unresponsive to antidepressant treatment and require more drastic or unconventional treatment approaches.
