What Is Addyi?

Addyi (flibanserin) is the first FDA-approved, non-hormonal medication designed to treat low libido in women diagnosed with hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD). It’s specifically for premenopausal women who experience persistent, distressing low sexual desire not caused by medical conditions, relationship issues, or medications. Unlike hormonal therapies, Addyi works by balancing neurotransmitters in the brain, targeting dopamine, norepinephrine, and serotonin to restore sexual desire.

How Does Addyi Treatment Work?

Addyi is a multifunctional serotonin agonist antagonist (MSAA) that corrects imbalances in brain chemistry linked to low libido. Here’s how it works:

Boosts excitatory neurotransmitters

Increases dopamine and norepinephrine, which promote sexual arousal.

Modulates serotonin

Reduces serotonin activity in brain areas that inhibit sexual desire.

Daily regimen

Taken nightly at bedtime, Addyi requires consistent use for optimal results, with some women noticing improvements within 4 weeks.

Clinical trials showed significant increases in satisfying sexual events and reduced distress related to low libido compared to placebo.

Benefits of Addyi

Non-Hormonal: Safe for women who cannot or prefer not to use hormone-based therapies.

Clinically Proven: Backed by three 24-week studies demonstrating improved sexual desire and reduced distress.

Holistic Approach: Addresses the root cause of HSDD by rebalancing brain chemistry rather than masking symptoms.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Addyi?

Addyi is ideal for premenopausal women with:

• Acquired, generalized HSDD: Low libido that developed over time and isn’t tied to specific situations or partners.
• No underlying medical/mental health conditions or medication interactions.
• Willingness to avoid alcohol due to potential side effects like dizziness or low blood pressure.

Note: Addyi is not for postmenopausal women, men, or those seeking short-term libido enhancement.
