首款'女性偉哥'有望在美國上市
Female Viagra nears approval
'女性偉哥'有望上市The first-ever "female Viagra" came one step closer to coming to market, as an advisory committee to the Food and Drug Administration voted Thursday afternoon to recommend that the FDA approve the drug with conditions. The committee voted 18-6 to recommend that the FDA approve flibanserin, a drug designed to boost the low sexual desire of otherwise healthy women.
首款"女性偉哥"距離上市又近了一步。美國食品藥物管理局(FDA)的一個諮詢委員會4日下午以18比6的投票結果建議FDA有條件批准氟班色林，這是一種提升身體健康但性慾低下的女性的性慾的藥物。
The FDA usually follows the recommendations of its advisory committees, but not always.
通常FDA會採納諮詢委員會的建議，但採納率也並非100%。
Its decision is expected by the end of the summer.
FDA將在夏季末之前做出決定。The agency has already rejected the drug twice, saying the potential side effects of fainting, nausea, dizziness, sleepiness and low-blood pressure outweighed its benefits.
FDA此前已經駁回該藥物兩次，稱其潛在的副作用(包括暈眩、噁心、頭昏、嗜睡和低血壓)遠超其療效。
