Good news for people who experience hot flushes. A new drug called fezolinetant which acts directly on the temperature control pathway has been approved in the US.

While it's early days, this sounds like a real game changer.

"This is going to be a completely blockbuster drug. It’s like a switch. Within a day or two the flushes go away. It’s unbelievable how well these drugs work. It’s going to be completely gamechanging for a lot of women.”
Let's hope it is approved by NICE soon. My own hot flushes were debilitating. I HAD to go (reluctantly) onto HRT just to be able to work in a customer facing environment.
