About Priligy (30mg & 60mg) Tablets
  1. What is Priligy?

    Priligy is the trade name for dapoxetine, which is a medication used in the treatment of premature ejaculation in men.

    Priligy is part of a group of medicines known as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). It works by inhibiting the serotonin transporter, which increases serotonin's action and promotes delayed ejaculation.

    You must have a prescription to buy Priligy tablets. They can only be taken by adults and are mostly prescribed for men aged between 18 and 64.

    What is Priligy used to treat?

    Priligy (dapoxetine) is an oral medication used to treat premature ejaculation in men. It can help men to last up to three times longer during sexual activity compared to when they are not taking medication for premature ejaculation.

    What is premature ejaculation?

    Premature ejaculation occurs when men ejaculate too early during sexual intercourse. This problem can affect men of all ages and research has shown that it will affect between 30% and 40% of men at some point in their life.

    Psychological problems like stress are often the cause of this issue. Although it is not normally a cause for concern, it can cause embarrassment, anxiety and depression in sufferers.

    Why is Priligy prescribed to treat premature ejaculation?

    Priligy has been found to significantly improve sexual performance in more than 80% of men.

    The active ingredient, dapoxetine, has been found to be well-tolerated, meaning it is considered a safe medicine to take when taken as prescribed. 

    How does Priligy treat premature ejaculation?

    Priligy contains dapoxetine, which is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI). It works by increasing serotonin activity in the nervous system, which selectively inhibits the reuptake of serotonin by the cells. This slows down the time the ejaculation reflex reaches the brain, meaning it takes longer for a man to ejaculate, allowing him to enjoy sex for longer.

    Who can take Priligy?

    Priligy (dapoxetine) is an effective drug prescribed to treat premature ejaculation in men. It should only be used by men aged between 18 and 64 years old.

    It is generally considered to be a safe drug, but Priligy may not be suitable for all men.

    You should not take Priligy tablets if:

    • You have a history of fainting
    • You have heart problems, such as heart failure or problems with your heart rhythm
    • You have any liver problems
    • You have ever had severe depression or mania

    You should not consume alcohol while taking Priligy as this may increase your risk of fainting or suffering side effects.

    You should also avoid drinking any grapefruit juice or consuming grapefruit products for at least 24 hours before you take Priligy, as this can increase the level of medicine inside your body.
