Dapoxetine is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) used to treat premature ejaculation (PE) in men. This medication works by increasing the amount of serotonin in the brain, which helps improve sexual function and reduce stress associated with premature ejaculation.
Dapoxetine is a type of SSRI, which means it works by increasing the amount of serotonin in the brain. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that plays a role in controlling a range of mood, emotions, and behavior. This neurotransmitter plays a role in regulating sexual performance and sexual satisfaction. Dapoxetine is commonly prescribed to treat premature ejaculation in men.
This medication may also be used to treat other conditions such as:
Dapoxetine is an oral medication used to treat premature ejaculation (PE) in men. PE can cause physical symptoms such as increased or decreased ejaculate, but these side effects are usually temporary and go away as the body adjusts to the medication.
If you miss a dose of Dapoxetine, take it as soon as possible. However, if it is close to the time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular dosing schedule. Do not take a double dose to make up for a missed one.
Common side effects of Dapoxetine may include:
Dapoxetine may cause your symptoms to go away if you continue to take it. However, if you take more than the prescribed dose or if you have a history of side effects, it is important to talk to your doctor about your treatment options.
Dapoxetine is not recommended if you also have a history of heart problems, vision problems, or kidney problems. It is also not recommended for women, children, or teenagers. Talk to your doctor about the risks and benefits of Dapoxetine for you.
If you have any questions about Dapoxetine, talk to your doctor about alternative treatment options.

A recent study of the effect of Dapoxetine on premature ejaculation and ejaculation during intercourse in men with premature ejaculation had some interesting results. In particular, this study found that, although not all men report ejaculation, they report ejaculation within one to two minutes after taking the drug, as measured by the number of erections or the time between ejaculations.
The findings were in line with a recent research which indicated that the rate of premature ejaculation in men who took Dapoxetine was reduced in the first few weeks after discontinuing the medication, compared with men who did not take it.
The study, in particular, found that the mean number of erections per second for men who took the drug was increased by 4.6 points. However, the mean time from the first ejaculation to the last sexual event was reduced to 2.8 hours. This means that men who used Dapoxetine for the first time for premature ejaculation experienced a 36% decrease in the rate of premature ejaculation, compared to men who took a placebo. Another study in Japan also showed that men who took Dapoxetine for the first time after the onset of premature ejaculation experienced a reduction of premature ejaculation with the mean time to last ejaculation remaining at a significantly greater range.
The researchers hypothesized that this might be due to a reduction in the effect of the drug on the brain, as a result of which men may experience more erections in the future. As such, they hypothesized that the drug may not have been the reason for the reduction in premature ejaculation, but rather that the medication may have caused a reduced effect.
It is important to note that these findings were reported in a single case study, and this study was not a randomized controlled trial. It is also worth mentioning that the findings were reported in a separate study in Japan, although a separate one was published in the same year.
Overall, the findings from this study suggest that the effect of the drug on premature ejaculation should be seen in men who used the medication for the first time after the onset of ejaculation.
However, a study in the United States showed that the effect of the drug on premature ejaculation was not found in men who were taking it for the first time.
This study also showed that the mean number of erections per second for men who took the drug was increased by 4.6 points. However, the mean time to last ejaculation was reduced to 2.8 hours. This means that men who used the drug for the first time for premature ejaculation experienced a 36% decrease in the rate of premature ejaculation, compared with men who took a placebo.In conclusion, this study shows that the effect of the drug on premature ejaculation should be seen in men who took the medication for the first time after the onset of ejaculation.
The authors of the study also reported the results of a case study in Japan that showed that the effect of the drug on premature ejaculation was not found in men who used it for the first time.
They also concluded that the drug should not be used in men who are taking other drugs for premature ejaculation, including antidepressants and anti-anxiety agents.
Overall, these studies suggest that the effect of the drug on premature ejaculation should be seen in men who have used the drug for the first time after the onset of ejaculation.
This means that men who used the drug for the first time for premature ejaculation experienced a 36% decrease in the rate of premature ejaculation, compared to men who took a placebo. This means that the drug may not have been the reason for the reduction in premature ejaculation, but rather that the medication may have caused a reduced effect.This study also found that the effect of the drug on premature ejaculation was not found in men who were taking it for the first time.
