What Is Vyleesi Used For?

What is Vyleesi used for? Vyleesi prescription medication contains the active ingredient bremelanotide and is sometimes used in treating women with low sexual desire from a condition known as hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD) - similar to flibanserin (Addyi). Vyleesi medication belongs to a class of drugs known as melanocortin receptor (MCR) agonists. Vyleesi prescription medication is thought to work by activating certain types of receptors in the central nervous system and exerting its effects. Additional research is being done on the active ingredient in Vyleesi medication under the investigational code PT-141.

Following administration, the half-life of the active ingredient in Vyleesi is typically under three hours and excretion occurs via the kidneys and feces. Vyleesi injections should be limited to eight uses every thirty days. Vyleesi medication is available as a 1.75 mg/0.3 mL solution and should generally be stored at or below 25° C away from light.

What is hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD)?

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

How is Vyleesi different from Addyi?

Addyi (flibanserin) is an oral tablet taken every night at bedtime. Vyleesi is an on-demand injection used only when sexual activity is anticipated. Choice depends on preference for daily vs. as-needed use, tolerability, and medical history.

How soon before sex should I inject Vyleesi?

At least 45 minutes before anticipated sexual activity.

What are the most common side effects?

Nausea (the most frequent), flushing, injection-site reactions, headache, and vomiting. Nausea often improves with subsequent doses for many patients.
