Exploring the Broader Therapeutic Potential of NK1 Receptor Antagonists Beyond Vasomotor Symptoms
Panelists discuss how NK1 receptor antagonists show promise beyond VMS, suggesting wider therapeutic potential across neurological and systemic conditions.
Episodes in this series

Panelists explore how NK1 receptor antagonists, long used for chemotherapy-induced nausea, have demonstrated broader physiological influence across systems. Their role in modulating stress, pain, and inflammation opens doors to potential applications beyond menopause.
Emerging research suggests benefits for conditions such as chronic pruritus, overactive bladder, and mood disorders—areas where neurokinin signaling contributes to dysregulation. This reinforces NK1’s importance as a therapeutic target for multisystem balance.
The conversation broadens the scope of menopause care, emphasizing that NK modulation may extend benefits to comorbid conditions, offering a more integrative health approach.
