Flibanserin (Addyi) — also known as Female Viagra or Pink Viagra — will be marketed by Sprout Pharmaceuticals. It is approved to treat premenopausal women. The nonhormonal therapy — a 5-hydroxytryptophan (HT)(1A) receptor agonist and 5-HT(2A) receptor antagonist — was approved for hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD). The HSDD diagnosis appeared in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 4th Edition (DSM-4), but was subsumed into a larger category of Female Sexual Interest/Arousal Disorder in the latest edition, DSM-5.
