FDA Drops the Black Box Warning… Let’s Talk Hormones
•
Sarah
This week on The Funky Pharmacist Podcast, Sarah and Hillary dive into the FDA’s big decision to remove the Black Box Warning from hormone therapy—and what that actually means for real people seeking relief.
We unpack:
- Why the Black Box was there in the first place
- How the WHI trials shaped decades of confusion
- The difference between bioidentical vs. commercially available hormones
- What the FDA’s update means for safety, access, and prescribing today
- Where (and who) to turn to if you’re looking for expert hormone support
All sprinkled with our usual back-and-forth banter, a little myth-busting, and a whole lot of clarity on a topic that’s been misunderstood for far too long.
