A new non-hormonal pill cut hot flashes by 74% in postmenopausal women, but the FDA hasn't approved it yet.
An experimental non-hormonal pill, elinzanetant, reduced hot flashes and night sweats by nearly 74% in postmenopausal women over three months, according to a JAMA Internal Medicine study of 313 participants across North America and Europe.
The 120 mg daily dose targeted brain receptors involved in temperature regulation, offering relief without estrogen, unlike hormone therapy which carries risks like stroke and cancer.
Benefits lasted up to a year with no harm to liver or bone health.
Side effects included sleepiness, fatigue, and headache.
While sleep and quality of life improved, results weren’t statistically significant.
The FDA has delayed approval, requesting more review.
The drug, developed by Bayer and funded by the company, may provide a safe option for women, including those with breast cancer.
