THERAPEUTIC CATEGORY: Flibanserin (code name BIMT-17; proposed trade name Girosa) is a drug that is currently being investigated by Boehringer Ingelheim as a novel, non-hormonal treatment for pre-menopausal women with Hypoactive Sexual Desire Disorder (HSDD).[1][2] HSDD is the most commonly reported female sexual complaint and characterized by a decrease in sexual desire that causes marked personal distress and/or personal difficulties. According to prevalence studies about 1 in 10 women reported low sexual desire with associated distress, which may be HSDD.[3] The neurobiological pathway of female sexual desire involves interactions among multiple neurotransmitters, sex hormones and various psychosocial factors. Sexual desire is modulated in distinct brain areas by a balance between inhibitory and excitatory neurotransmitters, serotonine acting as an inhibitor while dopamine and norepinephrine act as a stimulator of sexual desire.[4][5] Flibanserin is a 5-HT1A receptor agonist and 5-HT2A receptor antagonist that had initially been investigated as an antidepressant.[6][7] Preclinical evidence suggests that flibanserin targets these receptors preferentially in selective brain areas and helps to restore a balance between these inhibitory and excitatory effects.[5][8] HSDD has been recognized as a distinct sexual function disorder for more than 30 years.[9]
