Orilissa from Canada and Treatment for Endometriosis
Orilissa (elagolix) is a medication used to manage moderate to severe pain associated with endometriosis, a condition where tissue similar to the lining inside the uterus grows outside the uterus, causing pain and other symptoms.
How Orilissa Works
Orilissa works by lowering the levels of certain hormones in your body that cause the endometriosis tissue to grow. By doing this, it helps to reduce the pain and symptoms of endometriosis.
Available Orilissa Dosages in Canada
Orilissa comes in two dosages:
- 150 mg tablet taken once daily.
- 200 mg tablet taken twice daily.
Your doctor will determine the best dosage based on your symptoms and health condition.
How to Take Orilissa

Take your Orilissa tablet at the same time each day, with or without food.
Missed Dose
If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember if it's on the same day. Do not take more than the prescribed dose in one day.
