FDA PDUFA Target Action Date · Axsome Therapeutics, Inc.

approved

Note: APPROVED ON the PDUFA date, 2026-04-30. Brand name: AUVELITY (dextromethorphan HBr and bupropion HCl). New indication: agitation associated with dementia due to Alzheimer's disease — this was an sNDA adding a second indication to a brand first approved in Aug 2022 for major depressive disorder, which is exactly why the auto-matcher found "no FDA approval found in window": Drugs@FDA logs this as a supplement to the existing NDA, not a new drug approval, so any scan of new-approval records will keep missing it. Recommend matching sNDA outcomes on application-supplement records or manual PDUFA outcome entry rather than the new-approval feed.
