Cardamyst Approval

Milestone stated in its announcement that the approval of Cardamyst opens up an addressable market of more than two million Americans who suffer from PSVT. The nasal spray can be self-administered by patients outside the emergency department or other healthcare settings, the company said.

Milestone expects Cardamyst to be available for purchase at retail pharmacies in the first quarter (Q1) of 2026.

“Cardamyst is a novel at-the-ready treatment option that addresses the unpredictable impact of PSVT by offering patients the freedom to manage episodes anytime and anywhere,” said Joseph Oliveto, CEO, Milestone Pharmaceuticals.

Clinical Data

Milestone stated that Cardamyst’s approval by the FDA is based on safety data from more than 1,800 participants and over 2,000 episodes of PSVT.

The company said that participants using Cardamyst were twice as likely to convert symptomatic PSVT to sinus rhythm and did so more than three times faster than with a placebo.
