HI

Thanks for posting your query.

Yes the symptoms ( Faster heart beat, dizziness ) are the side effects of the tablet Buspar. But these side effects wear off on continued usage of the medicine.

My advice for you is to take half the dose of Buspar for a week and then increase it to full dose . Your symptoms will reduce and disappear once you follow this regime.

Also continue Enalapril and the water pill .

Hope this information was useful to you .

Any clarification feel free to ask.
