About this active substance


Fezolinetant is a new medication used to relieve moderate to severe hot flashes associated with menopause in women. It works by blocking specific receptors in the brain involved in regulating body temperature, thus reducing the frequency and intensity of hot flashes.

Fezolinetant is usually taken as tablets, once a day at the same time. The dose is determined by the doctor, and treatment should be followed as directed to achieve the best results. Do not stop treatment without consulting your doctor, even if symptoms improve.

Common side effects include insomnia, nausea, fatigue, and headache. In rare cases, allergic reactions, changes in liver function, or other severe reactions may occur. If you notice any unusual or severe symptoms, contact your doctor immediately.

Fezolinetant can significantly improve the quality of life for menopausal women experiencing bothersome hot flashes. Its use requires medical monitoring, and patients should inform their doctor about any other treatments or health problems.
