What Priligy is and what it is used for
Priligy contains an active substance called ‘dapoxetine’. This belongs to a group of medicines called ‘selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors’ (SSRIs). Priligy may also be known as a ‘urological’ medicine.
Priligy increases the time it takes to ejaculate and can improve the control over the ejaculation. This may reduce the frustration or worry about fast ejaculation.Priligy is a treatment for premature ejaculation (PE) in men 18 to 64 years old who have all of the following : ejaculation in less than 2 minutes following penetration, on most occasions, with little stimulation and before the man wishes to; and marked personal distress and interpersonal difficulty as a result of premature ejaculation (premature ejaculation troubles the man and his partner); and poor control over ejaculation.
When and how much to take?
Always take Priligy exactly as your doctor has told you. You must check with your doctor if you are not sure.
Do not take Priligy more than once every 24 hours. The usual dose is 30mg, taken when you need it about 1 to 3 hours before sexual activity. Your doctor may increase the dose to 60 mg.
Dapoxetine should not be taken in combination with recreational drugs such as ketamine, methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) and lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) because of the potential risk of serious adverse events including arrhythmia, hyperthermia and serotonin syndrome. Concomitant sedatives can increase the risk of somnolence and dizziness.
