Welcome to another exciting video where we're bringing you the latest updates from the world of medicine. In today's video, we will be discussing a groundbreaking development in the treatment of Postpartum Depression (PPD).

Approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration, Zuranolone, also known as Zurzuvae, is the first oral pill specifically designed to treat Postpartum Depression. This condition affects approximately one in seven new mothers, and this breakthrough in treatment could potentially change the lives of many.

Here's what makes this treatment stand out:

➤ Zuranolone is a once-daily pill, taken over a fourteen-day course, making it a simple and manageable treatment plan for new mothers.
➤ It's important to note that the medication does carry a boxed warning about potential impacts on a person's ability to drive and perform potentially hazardous activities. 
➤ Additionally, there are risks of suicidal thoughts and behaviour, which patients and their families should be aware of.

The approval of Zuranolone comes after Biogen and Sage Therapeutics, the companies behind the medication, were granted priority review for their application. This is a testament to the significance of this treatment in the healthcare community.

Remember, it's always important to consult with your healthcare provider about any new treatments and understand the potential risks and benefits.
