Nearly 1 out of 3 men suffer from premature ejaculation.
Dapoxetine, which is manufactured by Johnson & Johnson under the brand name Priligy, has proven itself useful as the only drug created to treat premature ejaculation.
Studies have shown that it helped affected men last between 2.
78 and 3.
72 minutes, compared to 1.
75 minutes in the men that took the placebo.
Anyone suffering from this condition knows that that is a great improvement.
However, Dapoxetine is based on and is classified as an selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI).
Some of the more popular SSRI's include Prozac, Zoloft, and Paxil.
These antidepressants have been shown to delay ejaculation.
With this delay, they have also caused erectile dysfunction, decreased sexual libido, and depression.
Dapoxetine is a lighter version and designed to be taken as needed, up to 3 hours before sexual intercourse, versus daily.
Is a drug the answer? Is it worth possibly losing your sex drive just to last another minute in bed? Premature ejaculation is an embarrassment.
A good sex life is a key ingredient to a happy relationship.
If you're worried about the side effects of Dapoxetine, and are just unable to handle premature ejaculation anymore, are there any other options? Of course there's another option.
It may not be as easy as popping a pill, but you won't have to worry about refilling prescriptions and having to plan sex to coincide with when the pill's going to "kick in".
How you ask? Conditioning.
Conditioning your mind and your body with simple, easy to do exercises, can give you at least 5 more minutes of sack time in the first week.
