Can sertraline hydrochloride tablets treat premature ejaculation?

Sertraline hydrochloride tablets can be used to treat premature ejaculation. As a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor, sertraline hydrochloride prolongs the ejaculatory latency period by blocking the reuptake of serotonin, thereby alleviating symptoms of premature ejaculation. This medication is effective to some extent for lifelong (primary) premature ejaculation, acquired (secondary) premature ejaculation, and premature ejaculation-like ejaculatory dysfunction. However, sertraline hydrochloride should only be used under the guidance of a physician, strictly following medical advice and instructions for use. Additionally, treatment options for premature ejaculation include psychotherapy, behavioral therapy, and other approaches; combination therapy often yields better results. Any pharmacological treatment should be undertaken cautiously, with close monitoring of physical condition, and medical attention should be sought promptly if any adverse effects occur.
