I wouldn't consider buspar similar to a benzo at all. Since it works on serotonin it would be more similar to an AD (Isn't it a 5HT1 agaonist? Please, please correct me if I'm wrong, I don't know much about this drug!). Thats why it doesn't work on an as needed basis.
I think if people take buspar hoping that it will feel or work like a benzo they are wrong. Similarly, I think if a pdoc thinks this will take the place of a benzo, they may be misguided as well. But what the heck do I know.
