Active Ingredient

Atosiban is a synthetic peptide which is a competitive antagonist of human oxytocin at receptor level. In human pre-term labour, atosiban at the recommended dosage antagonises uterine contractions and induces uterine quiescence.

Fezolinetant is a non-hormonal selective neurokinin 3 (NK3) receptor antagonist. It blocks neurokinin B (NKB) binding on the kisspeptin/neurokinin B/dynorphin (KNDy) neuron, which is postulated to restore the balance in KNDy neuronal activity in the thermoregulatory centre of the hypothalamus.

Flibanserin is a multifunctional serotonin agonist and antagonist used for the treatment of premenopausal women with hypoactive sexual desire disorder. In vitro, flibanserin acts as an agonist on 5-HT1A receptors and an antagonist on 5-HT2A receptors. It also has moderate antagonist activities at the 5-HT2B, 5-HT2C, and dopamine D4 receptors.
