New Non-Estrogen Medication for Hot Flashes? Veozah's Competitor

In May 2023, the FDA approved fezolinetant (Veozah), an oral medication that's the first neurokinin 3 (NK3) receptor antagonist to treat moderate to severe hot flashes caused by menopause. Now, a separate oral medication which blocks the NK 1 and 3 receptor iis on the scene. Although not yet FDA approved, the published phase 1, 2, and 3 data make this approval very likely. Bayer, the manufacturer of elinzanetant, has just submitted a New Drug Application for its approval. In this episode, we will review this new up and coming medication option for moderate to severe VMS due to menopause.
