Dapoxetine
Dapoxetine is a medication commonly used to treat premature ejaculation (PE) in men. It is a short-acting selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) that is specifically designed to help improve control over ejaculation and delay ejaculation during sexual activity.
Premature ejaculation is a condition in which a man ejaculates too quickly, often with minimal sexual stimulation, leading to sexual dissatisfaction for both partners. Dapoxetine works by increasing the levels of serotonin in the brain, which helps delay ejaculation and extend the duration of sexual intercourse.
Dapoxetine tablets are typically taken on an as-needed basis, approximately 1 to 3 hours before sexual activity. It should be used as prescribed by a healthcare provider. Dapoxetine is not intended to be used as a daily medication, but rather when needed to address premature ejaculation.
It's important to note that Dapoxetine is specifically indicated for the treatment of PE and is not used for other sexual dysfunctions or as an erectile dysfunction medication. As with any medication, potential side effects and interactions should be discussed with a healthcare professional before use.
