Plastic Surgery for Men QT: What is Priligy?

There is a new medication called Priligy®
or its generic version Dapoxetine which is the first
pill form medication designed purposely to treat
premature ejaculation (PE) in men. Premature ejaculation, being defined as ejaculating quicker than their partner or themselves would desire. Technically Dapoxetine or Priligy® is what is known as a SSRI
(selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor). SSRI's are typically prescribed for patients that experience depression and as such are used as antidepressants. However some SSRI's have shown the ability to reduce ejaculation time in some men but no other SSRI in studies has worked as well as
Dapoxetine for this issue.

Apparently it is also safer and eliminated from the body quicker than typical SSRI's as its terminal half life is approximately 20 hours with its initial half life around 1.4 hours. This is partially why it was rejected as a depression treatment. Because of its short duration a patient would need to be taking this medication several times per day for a proper effect, which is fairly unrealistic and as such Dapoxetine has not been actually approved as an antidepressant.

    Simply put this drug instructs the brain to delay ejaculation. It also does not change the sensitivity of the male sexual organs. Some products have been created that numb this area but get very mixed and often negative reviews. Priligy®/Dapoxetine is not considered a permanent cure for premature ejaculation but when it is taken approximately three hours before sexual activity it can work very well. Studies show it can work in up to seventy percent of men facing this problem and has shown to postpone ejaculation by upwards of three times. 

In a study, when men took 30mg of Priligy®/Dapoxetine they increased to ejaculation from 1 minute 45 seconds to just over 2 minutes 45 seconds. The men, who received 60mg of the drug, lasted just over 3 minutes thirty seconds. In a further study with around 2600 patients the researchers found that this medication increased the time a man could last upwards between 3 to 5 times their normal. Results would vary for each individual but averages definitely show a very large improvement much to the delight of both its users and manufacturers. They also determined that this may safely be taken by men between the ages of 18 to 64 provided that they are healthy enough for sex to begin with. 

          Priligy® / Dapoxetine has been approved for premature ejaculation in several European countries with more expected to approve it soon. Some of the countries where it is approved are Sweden, Germany, Spain, Portugal, Finland, Austria, Italy, sources say that it is now available in the UK and other countries both in Europe and other continents are expected to soon have it available. However at the time of this writing the FDA has not yet approved it for the United States. It currently is in phase three trial investigations and testing but expect to hear something soon regarding its possibility in the US. 


Premature ejaculation although not a dangerous or necessarily unhealthy condition, can cause disappointment, irritation, embarrassing as well as a relationship barrier to both partners. Numbers worldwide pin this problem somewhere around thirty percent but it is a little difficult to quantify as most men do not want to talk about it and it is hard to exclusively define. Some men who normally would not be under the premature ejaculation banner may from time to time in their life experience times of it. This can be brought on from over excitement or forms of anxiety. 


Treating PE can be accomplished through various exercises performed along with mental imagery and other psychological practices but now there is a medical way to fight this issue. If you live in a country where Dapoxetine / Priligy® if available and you are interested in trying it, we would suggest you visit your doctor for their view of you taking it as well as any concerns or questions.
