Flibanserin, sold under the brand name Addyi, is a medication used to treat women with hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD).[2] It increases the number of satisfying sexual events per month by about one half from a starting point of about two to three.[3][4] The certainty of this estimate is low.[3] It is taken by mouth.[2]

Common side effects include dizziness, sleepiness, nausea, and tiredness.[3] Other side effects may include low blood pressure.[2] Use with alcohol or in those with liver problems is not recommended.[2] There are concerns that use in pregnancy may harm the baby.[5] It is a 5-HT1A receptor activator and 5-HT2A receptor inhibitor.[2]

Flibanserin was approved for medical use in the United States in 2015 and Canada in 2018.[2][6] As of 2021 it is not approved in the United Kingdom.[7] In the United States it costs about 490 USD per month as of 2021.[8]
