Privately-held US sexual health specialists Sprout Pharmaceuticals has resubmitted its New Drug Application for flibanserin for the second time.

The NDA has been submitted to the US Food and Drug Administration for flibanserin, an investigational, once-daily, non-hormonal pill for hypoactive sexual desire disorder in premenopausal women. There is currently no FDA-approved treatment for this indication.

Rights to the investigational compound were previously held by Boehringer Ingelheim before it was dropped due to negative regulatory feedback.
