FDA approves the first postpartum depression pill
1 big thing - Un pódcast de Axios
The FDA approved the first pill for postpartum depression on Friday. The drug is called zuranolone, and unlike other antidepressants, it's specifically designated for postpartum depression, a condition that affects around 1 in 7 new mothers. The big picture: Zuranolone is taken daily for two weeks. Clinical trials showed that the drug could ease depression in as little as three days. Plus, young workers are redefining the American dream. And, Spanglish is making a comeback. Guests: Axios' Felix Salmon, Arielle Dreher and Marina Franco.
