Saundra Pelletier, Evofem’s Chief Executive Officer, stated,

The early findings of their celebrity DTC campaign are quite encouraging, with increased awareness of Phexxi within their target population and a significant rise in prescriptions completed. As they reach out to more women who have had identical unpleasant experiences with hormonal contraception, it stays their top aim to guarantee that everyone has accessibility to Phexxi as a non-hormonal birth control choice. The first part of their marketing approach, which was to develop a strong base of Phexxi prescribers and users, was successful. They plan to save around $50 million in operational expenses in 2022 as their marketing approach matures.
