Hypoactive Sexual Desire Disorder (HSDD) is when a woman experiences low sexual desire that isn’t caused by another medical condition. The low desire causes distress and difficulties in her relationships. To be diagnosed with HSDD, the lack of desire must be something she developed (acquired) and happen in all situations (generalized).
Vyleesi (bremelanotide) is a prescription medication that can help premenopausal women with HSDD.
Like all medications, including those for hair loss like finasteride, Vyleesi has the potential to interact with other drugs. Because Vyleesi can affect how your body absorbs other medications, it’s important to understand the potential for drug interactions before taking it.
In this article, we’ll take a closer look at potential Vyleesi drug interactions, contraindications, and warnings related to using Vyleesi with other medications. We’ll cover situations where Vyleesi may affect other drugs and instances where other drugs may affect Vyleesi. Be sure to talk with your doctor or pharmacist about all the medications you take before starting Vyleesi.
