BOCA RATON, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sep. 28, 2018-- TherapeuticsMD, Inc. (NASDAQ: TXMD), an innovative women’s healthcare company, today announced the schedule of ten oral presentations and posters at NAMS 2018, the annual meeting of the North American Menopause Society being held in San Diego, California on October 3-6, 2018, related to Imvexxy^TM (estradiol vaginal inserts) and TX-001HR, the Company’s investigational bio-identical hormone therapy combination of estradiol and progesterone in a single, oral softgel for the treatment of moderate-to-severe vasomotor symptoms due to menopause.

There will be three oral presentations reviewing the findings of the Phase 3 Replenish Trial of TX-001HR and the systemic profile of Imvexxy (TX-004HR).

“We are pleased to present additional data from the Replenish Trial that further support the safety and efficacy of TX-001HR as the first bio-identical combination hormone therapy of estradiol and progesterone,” said TherapeuticsMD Chief Medical Officer Sebastian Mirkin, M.D. “The FDA PDUFA target action date for TX-001HR is October 28, 2018. If approved, TX-001HR would provide an FDA-approved treatment option for the millions of postmenopausal women who are currently seeking treatment for moderate to severe vasomotor symptoms using unapproved compounded hormones.”

The posters and presentations will be made available on the Investors & Media section of the company’s website at www.therapeuticsmd.com.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION FOR IMVEXXY

CONTRAINDICATIONS

• Imvexxy™ is contraindicated in women with any of the following conditions: undiagnosed abnormal genital bleeding; known, suspected, or history of breast cancer; known or suspected estrogen-dependent neoplasia; active DVT, PE, or history of these conditions; active arterial thromboembolic disease or a history of these conditions; known anaphylactic reaction or angioedema to Imvexxy; known liver impairment or disease; known protein C, protein S, or antithrombin deficiency, or other known thrombophilic disorders.

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS

• Imvexxy is intended only for vaginal administration. Systemic absorption may occur with the use of Imvexxy.
• The use of estrogen-alone and estrogen plus progestin therapy has been reported to result in an increase in abnormal mammograms requiring further evaluation.
• The WHI estrogen plus progestin substudy reported a statistically non-significant increased risk of ovarian cancer. A meta-analysis of 17 prospective and 35 retrospective epidemiology studies found that women who used hormonal therapy for menopausal symptoms had an increased risk for ovarian cancer. The exact duration of hormone therapy use associated with an increased risk of ovarian cancer, however, is unknown.
• Other warnings include: gallbladder disease; severe hypercalcemia, loss of vision, severe hypertriglyceridemia or cholestatic jaundice.
• Estrogen therapy may cause an exacerbation of asthma, diabetes mellitus, epilepsy, migraine, porphyria, systemic lupus erythematosus, and hepatic hemangiomas and should be used with caution in women with these conditions.
• Women on thyroid replacement therapy should have their thyroid function monitored.

ADVERSE REACTIONS

• The most common adverse reaction with Imvexxy (incidence ≥ 3 percent) and greater than placebo was headache.
