Interaction
Oral Contraceptives and Other Weak CYP3A4 Inhibitors: Increases Pink Pill exposures and incidence of adverse reactions.
Strong CYP2C19 Inhibitors: Increases Pink Pill exposure which may increase risk of hypotension, syncope, and CNS depression.
CYP3A4 Inducers: Use of Pink Pill not recommended; Pink Pill concentrations substantially reduced.
Digoxin: Increases digoxin concentrations, which may lead to digoxin toxicity. Increase monitoring of digoxin concentrations.
Strong CYP2C19 Inhibitors: Increases Pink Pill exposure which may increase risk of hypotension, syncope, and CNS depression.
CYP3A4 Inducers: Use of Pink Pill not recommended; Pink Pill concentrations substantially reduced.
Digoxin: Increases digoxin concentrations, which may lead to digoxin toxicity. Increase monitoring of digoxin concentrations.
Contraindications
Flibanserin is contraindicated:
- With use of alcohol,
- With concomitant use with moderate or strong CYP3A4 inhibitors,
- In patients with hepatic impairment.
Side Effects

Pregnancy & Lactation
There are no studies of Flibanserin in pregnant women to inform whether there is a drug-associated risk in humans. Flibanserin is excreted in rat milk. It is unknown whether flibanserin is present in human milk, whether Flibanserin has effects on the breastfed infant, or whether Flibanserin affects milk production. Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions including sedation in a breastfed infant, breastfeeding is not recommended during treatment with Flibanserin.

Patients with pre-syncope should immediately lie supine and promptly seek medical help if symptoms do not resolve. Exacerbated by other CNS depressants and in settings where Pink Pill concentrations are increased. Patients should avoid activities requiring full alertness (e.g., operating machinery or driving) until at least 6 hours after each dose and until they know how Pink Pill affects them.
