What is Priligy?

Priligy contains dapoxetine, a medication in the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) class. It’s used to help delay ejaculation and improve control over it, addressing issues related to premature ejaculation. This treatment is designed for adult men aged 18 to 64 years.

What is the active ingredient in Priligy?

The active ingredient in each Priligy tablet is dapoxetine.

What is Priligy used for?

Priligy is used to treat premature ejaculation in men aged 18 to 64. Premature ejaculation is a condition where ejaculation occurs too quickly during sex, often with little stimulation. This can cause stress and affect sexual satisfaction. Priligy works by delaying ejaculation and improving control, helping to manage this condition effectively.

How does Priligy work?

Priligy contains dapoxetine, a type of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) designed to treat premature ejaculation. It works by boosting serotonin levels in the brain, which helps delay the ejaculation reflex. This improves control over ejaculation, extending the time before ejaculation occurs, and reducing the frustration associated with premature ejaculation.
