Watch for Orilissa, a New Med for Endometriosis

December 2018

Orilissa (or-ih-LIH-sah, elagolix) will be a new oral Rx for endometriosis...endometrial tissue that grows outside of the uterus.

Orilissa lowers the amount of estrogen in the body...which helps reduce endometrial tissue and ease pain.

Expect Orilissa to be saved for women who don't respond to standard meds for endometriosis...such as combo hormonal contraceptives.
