🧪Earlier this month, the FDA approved the first drug designed to treat the root cause of narcolepsy. Several more of these so-called orexin agonists are on the way, and scientists are finding they can be useful in treating a number of other disorders.

As Takeda’s oveporexton (Orzeyful) becomes a first-in-class treatment for narcolepsy type 1, industry eyes broader indications for orexin receptor agonists
