How does VEOZAH work?

Science has revealed that VMS—also known as Vasomotor Symptoms—the medical name for hot flashes and night sweats—due to menopause isn't caused by declining estrogen alone.


In fact, we know that a brain chemical called neurokinin B, or NKB for short, is a trigger of VMS. NKB is found in the temperature control center of your brain, the hypothalamus.


When NKB binds to the receptor in the hypothalamus during menopause it triggers hot flashes and night sweats.


VEOZAH is the first prescription treatment of its kind for moderate to severe Vasomotor Symptom (VMS) due to menopause.


VEOZAH is designed to directly block NKB from binding to the receptor. This reduces hot flashes and night sweats due to menopause.

What are the possible side effects of 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.

If your liver blood test values are elevated, your healthcare provider may advise you to stop treatment or request additional liver blood tests.

  • 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, or pain in the stomach (abdomen).

  • Do not use VEOZAH if you have cirrhosis, severe kidney problems, or kidney failure.

  • Do not use VEOZAH if you are taking certain medicines called CYP1A2 inhibitors. Ask your healthcare provider if you are not sure.

  • The most common side effects of VEOZAH include stomach (abdominal) pain, diarrhea, difficulty sleeping (insomnia), back pain, and 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.
