PRILIGY is a treatment for men 18 to 64 years old with frequent premature ejaculation (PE), which troubles the man and affects the relationship with his sexual partner.
PE is a common sexual disorder in which ejaculation happens with minimal sexual stimulation before, on, or shortly after penetration, and before the man wishes it.
PRILIGY, containing the active ingredient dapoxetine, is a type of drug called a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI). PRILIGY increases your time to ejaculation and can improve your control over ejaculation and reduce your distress over how fast you ejaculate.
This may improve your satisfaction with sexual intercourse.
Ask your doctor if you have any questions about why PRILIGY has been prescribed for you.
This medicine is available only with a doctor's prescription.
