USFDA Approves Tonix Pharma Tonmya for Fibromyalgia in Adults
Tonmya, a non-opioid analgesic approved by the FDA, significantly reduced fibromyalgia pain by about 30% in clinical trials involving over 1,000 patients.
- On August 15th, the US Food and Drug Administration approved Tonmya , a non-opioid bedtime treatment for adults with fibromyalgia in the United States.
- A long approval drought left clinicians with limited options, as no new FDA-approved fibromyalgia therapy had been approved in over 15 years while the condition affects ten million adults in the US, with women making up around 80% of sufferers.
- In clinical trials, RELIEF and RESILIENT of nearly 1,000 patients combined showed approximately 59.7% of Tonmya-treated patients reported treatment-emergent adverse events versus 46.3% with placebo, including oral hypoesthesia in 17.3% versus 0.4%.
- Tonmya will be available in the fourth quarter of 2025, with patents from the US Patent and Trademark Office ensuring market exclusivity until at least 2034.1.
- Following the approval, Tonmya targets nonrestorative sleep to ease symptoms, offering a first-in-class non-opioid sublingual analgesic option for 10 million patients with fibromyalgia.
