Fezotan Tablet 45 mg contains Fezolinetant, a modern, non‑hormonal medication designed to treat vasomotor symptoms associated with menopause, particularly hot flashes (hot flushes) and night sweats in adult women. As a selective neurokinin 3 (NK3) receptor antagonist, Fezolinetant offers relief by targeting the neurological pathways that cause temperature dysregulation without the use of estrogen or other hormones. This makes Fezotan a valuable option for women seeking relief from menopausal symptoms who are unable or prefer not to use hormone‑based therapies.

Fezolinetant has been studied extensively and approved in several regions for daily oral use. Typically taken once daily as a 45 mg tablet, Fezotan helps reduce both the frequency and severity of moderate to severe vasomotor symptoms, improving comfort and quality of life during menopause.

Indications

Fezotan Tablet 45 mg is indicated for:

• Relief of moderate to severe vasomotor symptoms (VMS) such as hot flashes and night sweats due to menopause

• Management of thermoregulatory symptoms in postmenopausal women seeking non‑hormonal treatment

Mechanism of Action

Fezolinetant works by selectively blocking the neurokinin 3 (NK3) receptors in the hypothalamus, which is the area of the brain responsible for maintaining body temperature. By inhibiting neurokinin B (NKB) from binding to these receptors, Fezolinetant helps stabilize the body’s temperature regulation pathways, thereby reducing the occurrence and severity of hot flashes and night sweats. This non‑hormonal mechanism makes Fezotan an alternative to estrogen‑based therapies, particularly for women who cannot use hormonal treatments.
