Talk to your doctor to learn if VEOZAH is right for you.
Welcome to Cooler Moments. I'm Doctor Jen Ashton, and I'm partnering with Astellas Pharma to talk about something that often doesn't get talked about enough. Menopause. I've spent almost two decades as a board-certified OBGYN talking to women like you, in the doctor's office and on TV, about their bodies and what happens during menopause. Realizing you're going through menopause can absolutely be an unsettling experience, but I want women to feel empowered and educated to speak up and advocate for themselves.
That includes working with your doctor to manage your hot flashes and night sweats, also known as Vasomotor Symptoms or VMS due to menopause. There are more options to treat these symptoms than ever before. One of these options is VEOZAH. A 100% hormone-free treatment for moderate to severe VMS due to menopause. Unlike anything else, VEOZAH directly blocks a source of hot flashes and night sweats.
It works by blocking a certain chemical in your hypothalamus, the area of your brain that controls body temperature. I encourage those experiencing VMS to talk to their doctors to learn more about possible side effects.
VEOZAH can cause serious side effects, including liver problems. Your doctor will do blood tests before and during treatment. Stop VEOZAH and call your doctor if you have symptoms of liver problems, such as feeling more tired than usual, decreased appetite, nausea, vomiting, itching, yellowing of the eyes or skin, pale stool, dark urine, or stomach pain.
Explore more about how VEOZAH works here. Don't forget to check back in for more content to come. We'll dive deeper into hot flashes and night sweats due to menopause, and how VEOZAH may help.
Don't use VEOZAH if you have cirrhosis, severe kidney problems, kidney failure, or take CYP1A2 inhibitors.
Stay tuned for more VMS content and conversations with Dr. Ashton. Until then, you can watch the MOA video to get a better understanding of how VEOZAH works in the body.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
What is the most important information I should know about VEOZAH?
VEOZAH can cause serious side effects, including:
- Liver Problems. Your healthcare provider will do a blood test to check your liver before you start taking VEOZAH. Your healthcare provider will also do this blood test monthly for the first 3 months, at month 6, and month 9 after you start taking VEOZAH or if you have signs or symptoms that suggest liver problems. If your liver blood test values are elevated, your healthcare provider may advise you to stop treatment or request additional liver blood tests.
What is VEOZAH™ (fezolinetant)?
VEOZAH is a prescription medicine used to reduce moderate to severe vasomotor symptoms due to menopause. VEOZAH is not a hormone. Vasomotor symptoms are the feelings of warmth in the face, neck, and chest, or sudden intense feelings of heat and sweating (“hot flashes” or “hot flushes”).
Stop VEOZAH right away and call your healthcare provider if you have the following signs or symptoms of liver problems:
- feeling more tired than you do usually
- decreased appetite
- nausea
- vomiting
- itching
- yellowing of the eyes or skin (jaundice)
- pale feces
- dark urine
- pain in the stomach (abdomen)
Do not use VEOZAH if you:
- have cirrhosis.
- have severe kidney problems or kidney failure.
- are taking certain medicines called CYP1A2 inhibitors. Ask your healthcare provider if you are not sure.
Before you use VEOZAH, tell your healthcare provider about all of your medical conditions, including if you:
- have liver disease or problems.
- have kidney problems.
- have any medical conditions that may become worse while you are using VEOZAH.
Tell your healthcare provider about all the medicines you take, including prescription and over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal supplements. VEOZAH may affect the way other medicines work, and other medicines may affect how VEOZAH works.
The most common side effects of VEOZAH include:
- stomach (abdominal) pain
- diarrhea
- difficulty sleeping (insomnia)
- back pain
- hot flashes or hot flushes
These are not all the possible side effects of VEOZAH. Tell your healthcare provider if you have any side effect that bothers you or does not go away.
Call your healthcare provider for medical advice about side effects. You are encouraged to report negative side effects of prescription drugs to the FDA. Visit www.fda.gov/medwatch or call 1-800-FDA-1088.
