FDA head on dropping warnings from menopause hormone therapy

Season 2025 Episode 314 | 8m 47s

The FDA announced it would begin asking drug companies to remove so-called “black box” warnings for hormones prescribed to treat symptoms of menopause. The FDA says the warning has dissuaded generations of women from taking advantage of the medication that could help them. Ali Rogin discussed more with FDA Commissioner Dr. Marty Makary.
