FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

TherapeuticsMD Enters Into Label Negotiations for TX-004HR

 

BOCA RATON, Florida, April 11, 2018 – TherapeuticsMD, Inc. (NASDAQ: TXMD), an innovative women’s healthcare company, today announced that the Company has entered into negotiations with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regarding the proposed label for TX-004HR, the Company’s investigational applicator-free estradiol vaginal softgel capsule for the treatment of moderate-to-severe vaginal pain during sexual intercourse (dyspareunia), a symptom of vulvar and vaginal atrophy (VVA) due to menopause. As previously announced, the Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) target action date for the completion of the FDA’s review of the new drug application (NDA) for TX-004HR is May 29, 2018. The Company does not anticipate providing subsequent updates with respect to label negotiations prior to the PDUFA target action date. There can be no assurance that the FDA will approve the NDA for TX-004HR, or that such approval will occur by the PDUFA target action date, and the entrance into label negotiations does not imply otherwise.
