The standard treatment for erection problems is the use of drugs called PDE-5 inhibitors (for example, Viagra, Cialis and Levitra). At present it is not clear whether adding the new drug dapoxetine in men whose underlying erectile dysfunction (ED) has been successfully treated will improve their symptoms of premature ejaculation. Dapoxetine is the only drug in its class which can be used on an "as needed" basis.

Dapoxetine, when administered 1 to 3 hours before anticipated intercourse, is generally well tolerated and results in a significant improvement in the time to ejaculation in men with PE. The primary aim of the current study is to assess the effectiveness of 12 weeks treatment with one of two doses of dapoxetine (taken on an "as needed" basis) compared to placebo (dummy treatment) in prolonging the time to ejaculation in men with PE and ED who are already being treated with a PDE-5 inhibitor. A total of approximately 656 men will take part in a number of study sites internationally. Premature ejaculation (PE)in men with underlying erection problems affects a substantial number of men.

• Dapoxetine's effectiveness peaks when taken on an empty stomach.
• It is classified as a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI).
• The medication’s half-life is short, leading to quick clearance from the system.
• Dapoxetine does not cure premature ejaculation but manages symptoms temporarily.
• Possible temporary side effects include mild nausea and dizziness.
• Do not exceed the recommended dose to avoid adverse effects.

Priligy contains the active ingredient dapoxetine, which is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI). It works by boosting the levels of serotonin in the body, causing a delayed reaction in the areas of the brain that cause ejaculation.
