The FDA approved etripamil nasal spray, the first self-treatment for PSVT, a common heart rhythm disorder.
The FDA has approved CARDAMYST (etripamil) nasal spray as the first self-administered treatment for adults with paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT), a condition affecting over two million Americans.
The drug, developed by Milestone Pharmaceuticals, allows patients to treat acute PSVT episodes outside emergency settings.
Clinical trials involving over 1,800 participants showed etripamil achieved normal heart rhythm in nearly 60% of cases within 30 minutes, with a median conversion time of 18.5 minutes.
It was well-tolerated, with mild side effects like nasal congestion and throat irritation.
The medication is expected to be available in retail pharmacies in early 2026.
