Addyi is not for women who have already gone through menopause. This medicine is also not for use by men.

Addyi is only available through a risk evaluation and mitigation strategy (REMS) Program due to the increased risk of experiencing severe low blood pressure and fainting (loss of consciousness) with alcohol use.
