Ibrexafungerp, sold under the brand name Brexafemme, is an antifungal medication used to treat vaginal yeast infection.[1] It may be used in females after the start of menstruation.[1] It is taken by mouth.[1]

Common side effects include diarrhea, nausea, abdominal pain, and dizziness.[1] Use in pregnancy may harm the baby.[1] It is a triterpenoid antifungal and acts via blocking glucan synthase, which prevents formation of the fungal cell wall.[1]

Ibrexafungerp was approved for medical use in the United States in 2021.[1] It is not approved in Europe or the United Kingdom as of 2022.[2] In the United States a course of treatment costs about 500 USD as of 2022.[3]
