Elinzanetant Outperforms Fezolinetant in Relieving Menopausal Symptoms

A review published in Obstetrics & Gynecology evaluated the efficacy and safety of elinzanetant and fezolinetant for managing vasomotor symptoms (VMS).

In this systematic review and meta-analysis, including seven randomized controlled trials with 4,087 menopausal women, both drugs were associated with reductions in the frequency and severity of VMS symptoms. Elinzanetant 120 mg also showed improvement in sleep quality, with reported adverse events including drug-related events and headache.

Overall, the findings suggest that both fezolinetant and elinzanetant provide beneficial outcomes for managing menopausal vasomotor symptoms, with elinzanetant showing a larger effect on symptom reduction and sleep improvement.
