Premature Ejaculation Treatments

Priligy (Dapoxetine) is the most commonly prescribed premature ejaculation treatment. It helps improve control and performance by delaying ejaculation.

Dapoxetine is an approved treatment for PE, but it may not be suitable for everyone. A prescriber will review medical history before prescribing to ensure safety.

 Dapoxetine increases serotonin levels in the brain. This slows down ejaculation, helping men last longer during sex.

Priligy is licensed for use in men aged 18 to 64 who experience persistent premature ejaculation. It is not suitable for those with certain heart conditions, liver problems, a history of fainting or seizures, or those taking certain other medications including other SSRIs, antidepressants, or medications that affect serotonin levels. A thorough consultation with a prescriber will identify whether Priligy is safe and appropriate for you.

The most commonly reported side effects include nausea, headaches, dizziness, and flushing. Some men may experience a drop in blood pressure upon standing, which can cause lightheadedness — particularly in the hours following the dose. To minimise this risk, it is advisable to be well hydrated before taking Priligy and to avoid standing up quickly. Side effects are generally mild and short-lived, resolving as the medication leaves the body.

Priligy can interact with a number of medications, so it is essential to disclose your full medication history during your consultation. It should not be taken alongside other SSRIs, monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs), certain antifungals, or medications used to treat HIV. It should also not be combined with recreational drugs or excessive alcohol, as this can increase the risk of side effects such as dizziness or fainting.

Priligy manages rather than cures PE — it improves control on the occasions it is taken but does not address the underlying cause. For some men, combining Priligy with psychological support, therapy, or behavioural techniques such as the squeeze or stop-start method can produce longer-term improvements. If PE is primarily driven by anxiety or relationship factors, speaking to a therapist or psychosexual counsellor alongside medical treatment may be beneficial.
