Premature ejaculation medications are drugs used to prevent premature ejaculation (premature ejaculation). Premature ejaculation refers to ejaculation that occurs quickly when sexual arousal increases, and several treatments and medications exist to prevent this. Below is an overview of some of the most common premature ejaculation prevention medications and a brief description of each.
Dapoxetine
- Dapoxetine is one of the most widely used drugs for premature ejaculation.It is known by its trade name, Priligy.
- Mode of Action: Dapoxetine is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) that delays ejaculation by increasing serotonin levels in the brain. Although SSRIs are originally used as antidepressants, they can help control ejaculation.
- Directions: Taken 1-3 hours before sexual activity, it temporarily delays ejaculation.
- Side effects: Mild dizziness, nausea, and headache have been reported, but are usually relatively mild.
2. lidocaine spray or cream
- Lidocaine is an ingredient used as a local anesthetic to dull sensation in the penis to prevent premature ejaculation. Sprays and creams containing lidocaine are used to reduce sexual sensation and delay ejaculation.
- Instructions for use: Before sexual intercourse, apply an appropriate amount of spray or cream to dull the sensation in the penis. Then leave it for a certain time and wait for the sensation to dull.
- Side Effects: May decrease pleasure by numbing the senses too much. It should also be wiped off thoroughly to avoid affecting your partner.
3. other options
- SSRI antidepressants (other than dapoxetine): Some antidepressants have the side effect of delaying ejaculation and are sometimes prescribed to prevent premature ejaculation. These medications are usually effective when taken over a long period of time, but are primarily for the treatment of psychiatric disorders.
- Tramadol: Tramadol is a drug usually used to relieve pain, but has the side effect of delaying ejaculation. Some physicians may prescribe it to prevent premature ejaculation.
4. in combination with psychological treatment
In addition to medication, psychological treatments (counseling and behavioral therapy) can be effective in addressing the underlying causes of premature ejaculation. Since stress and performance anxiety can cause premature ejaculation, psychological support may also be more effective when used in combination.
5. precautions when using drugs to prevent premature ejaculation
- Physician consultation: Premature ejaculation medications often require a physician’s prescription, especially medications such as dapoxetine and SSRIs, which require consideration of an individual’s health and interactions with other medications taken.
- Beware of side effects: Because medications can be associated with side effects, it is important to always consult with a physician before use and to choose the treatment that is right for you.
summary
Options for preventing premature ejaculation include oral medications such as dapoxetine and local anesthetic sprays containing lidocaine. These can delay ejaculation and, with proper use, can prevent premature ejaculation. However, they can have side effects and other health effects, so it is important to consult with a physician when using them to find the right treatment for you.
