Decision

What the current evidence supports

Human editorial judgment · 2026-08-20

Proceed with caution

Why
The efficacy evidence is unusually strong and mechanistically first-in-class — two 12-week randomized placebo-controlled phase 3 studies enrolling 273 adults supported approval, on top of a phase 2 showing MWT sleep latency +23.5 min (2 mg BID) versus -1.2 min on placebo — but the product is approved-and-unavailable: DEA scheduling is unresolved, no official label is published in DailyMed or openFDA as of 2026-08-10, and 60%/58%/11% AE rates mean the risk conversation is real rather than nominal.
Next
Re-check the DEA scheduling outcome and wait for the published U.S. label to appear in DailyMed/openFDA before treating Orzeyful as prescribable; when it lands, gate any patient-facing claim on the NT1-only indication and on monitoring for insomnia, urinary frequency and CPK elevation.
