Surrey & North West Sussex Area Prescribing Committee (formerly Prescribing Clinical Network)

The Surrey & North West Sussex Area Prescribing Committee updated their recommendations in line with NICE guidance NG23 Menopause diagnosis and management in May 2020.

Ospemifene is not recommended for menopausal symptoms and a NON FORMULARY traffic light status has been agreed. Please refer to the Menopause -NG23 briefing paper attached below for further information (Page 16).  Ospemifene is not a cost effective treatment option for urogenital atrophy.
