Drug: Dapoxetine Hydrochloride | Class: Short-Acting SSRI / Premature Ejaculation Treatment | Brand Reference: Priligy 60mg (Janssen); Duralast 60 (Sun Pharma India) | Indication: Premature ejaculation (PE) in men aged 18–64 — on-demand treatment | Standard Dose: 60mg taken 1–3 hours before anticipated sexual activity as needed
Dapoxetine 60mg is a short-acting SSRI approved for on-demand treatment of premature ejaculation (PE) in men. Unlike antidepressant SSRIs (which are taken daily), dapoxetine is taken 1–3 hours before sexual activity and clears the body within 24 hours. In Phase III trials involving over 6,000 men, dapoxetine 60mg increased ejaculatory time (IELT) by 3.5-fold and significantly improved sexual satisfaction. It is approved in the UK, EU, Australia, and India (though not by the FDA in the USA).
Dapoxetine 60mg contains Dapoxetine Hydrochloride, a short-acting ssri / premature ejaculation treatment indicated for premature ejaculation (pe) in men aged 18–64 — on-demand treatment. Integrated analysis of 5 Phase III RCTs (n=6081): dapoxetine 60mg increased IELT (intravaginal ejaculatory latency time) 3.5-fold vs placebo; FDA-reviewed but approved in EU, UK, India.

Short-acting selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor; peaks rapidly (1–2h) and clears within 24h; delays ejaculation via serotonergic modulation of the ejaculatory reflex — making Dapoxetine Hydrochloride effective against premature ejaculation (pe) in men aged 18–64 — on-demand treatment.
30mg is the starting dose, recommended for the first treatment attempts. If tolerated but insufficiently effective after several uses, increase to 60mg. In trials, 60mg produced superior IELT improvement (3.5-fold increase) versus 30mg (2.5-fold), with acceptable tolerability. Most men requiring maximum efficacy use the 60mg dose after confirming tolerability at 30mg.
Dapoxetine 60mg should be taken 1–3 hours before anticipated sexual activity. Peak plasma concentration occurs at approximately 1–2 hours. Taking it 1 hour before is optimal. Unlike daily PE treatments (where timing doesn’t matter), dapoxetine’s on-demand nature requires planning. It does not work reliably if taken less than 1 hour before activity.
Yes — combination products (dapoxetine + sildenafil) exist because many men with premature ejaculation also experience erectile dysfunction. The combination treats both conditions simultaneously. However, orthostatic hypotension risk increases; patients should sit or lie down if dizziness occurs. Avoid alcohol, which significantly worsens orthostatic hypotension with this combination.
Dapoxetine has not been FDA-approved in the USA due to concerns about cardiovascular effects (syncope/faintness) in clinical trials. It is approved and widely used in the UK, EU, Australia, South Korea, India, and many other countries. US physicians sometimes prescribe clomipramine or SSRIs off-label for premature ejaculation.
Nausea is the most common side effect (affecting approximately 20% of users at 60mg). Headache, dizziness, and dry mouth also occur. Orthostatic hypotension (dizziness when standing) is a specific concern — patients should avoid sudden position changes and alcohol. Do not drive or operate machinery until the drug has cleared (24 hours). Do not take with MAO inhibitors.
