Veozah is indicated for the treatment of moderate to severe vasomotor symptoms (VMS) associated with menopause, including hot flashes and night sweats.
Veozah is a selective neurokinin 3 (NK3) receptor antagonist. It works by blocking NK3 receptors in the brain, which helps reduce the frequency and severity of hot flashes by modulating the thermoregulatory pathway that becomes dysregulated during menopause.
Veozah is a non-hormonal alternative to traditional hormone therapy. It should be taken as directed by a healthcare provider. Patients should inform their doctor about all medications they are taking, as drug interactions may occur. Common side effects may include abdominal pain and liver-related reactions. Regular monitoring of liver function may be recommended during treatment.
