Addyi - Overview

Addyi (flibanserin) is a prescription medication used to treat acquired, generalized hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD) in women less than 65 years of age. Women who might benefit from Addyi can use Push Health to connect with a medical provider who can prescribe Addyi medication when appropriate to do so.

Addyi - Dosage and Cost

Addyi medication contains flibanserin and is sometimes prescribed to women with acquired, generalized hypoactive sexual desire disorder - similar to bremelanotide (Vyleesi). Addyi is a non-hormonal medication that affects serotonin and dopamine receptors in the brain. It is indicated specifically for acquired, generalized HSDD. HSDD is characterized by low sexual desire that causes marked distress or interpersonal difficulty and is not due to another medical or psychiatric condition, relationship problems, or the effects of a medication or substance. It is not indicated to enhance sexual performance, for men, or for low desire caused by other factors.

Addyi - Dosage and Cost

Addyi typically prescribed to be taken as Addyi 100 mg once daily at bedtime but the regimen used ultimately depends on the needs of the patient and the judgment of the medical provider. Taking Addyi at bedtime reduces the risk of hypotension, syncope, accidental injury, and daytime CNS depression (drowsiness or sedation).

Addyi tablets are expensive when paid out of pocket, often costing $15-20 per Addyi 100 mg tablet. Manufacturer savings programs, discount cards, and insurance coverage may reduce the cost for eligible patients. There is no generic version currently available.

Can I Buy Addyi Online?

Addyi medication is available by prescription only. Currently, Addyi OTC (over the counter) is not available. Women who might need an Addyi prescription can use Push Health to connect with a medical provider who can prescribe Addyi tablets when appropriate to do so.

Frequently Asked Questions about Addyi

What is hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD)?

HSDD is a persistent or recurrent deficiency of sexual desire that causes significant personal distress or interpersonal difficulty. “Acquired” means it developed after a period of normal desire while “generalized” means it is not limited to specific situations or partners.

How long does it take for Addyi to work?

Some women notice improvement within a few weeks but a full trial of up to 8 weeks is recommended. If there is no benefit after 8 weeks, the medication should generally be stopped.

Can I drink alcohol while taking Addyi?

Alcohol taken around the time of an Addyi dose increases the risk of severe low blood pressure and fainting. Alcohol should typically not be used with Addyi. People considering using alcohol while taking Addyi should first discuss doing so with their medical provider.

Who should not take Addyi?

Addyi is contraindicated in patients with hepatic impairment and in those taking moderate or strong CYP3A4 inhibitors. It is not recommended for women 65 years or older currently. It is not indicated for men.

How does Addyi compare with Vyleesi?

Both are approved for HSDD. Addyi is an oral tablet taken daily at bedtime. Vyleesi (bremelanotide) is an on-demand injectable used as needed. A provider can help determine which option is more suitable.

What are the most common side effects?

Dizziness, sleepiness (somnolence), nausea, fatigue, insomnia, and dry mouth. These are often most noticeable when starting treatment.

Is Addyi a hormone?

No. Addyi is a non-hormonal medication that works on central nervous system receptors involved in sexual desire.
