What are the oral medications for delaying ejaculation?
Recently, my sexual intercourse time has been somewhat short, and I feel that I may have premature ejaculation. I would like to purchase some oral medications to prolong the duration. What oral medications are available for this purpose?
Doctor's answer (1)
Currently, oral medications used for the treatment of premature ejaculation mainly include the following categories:
1. Dapoxetine Hydrochloride Tablets: These are suitable for the treatment of patients with premature ejaculation meeting the following conditions, such as persistent or recurrent ejaculation occurring before vaginal penetration, during the process, shortly after penetration, or prior to achieving sexual satisfaction, and triggered by minimal sexual stimulation.
2. Sildenafil Citrate Tablets: The main component of this medication is sildenafil, a short-acting, non-hormonal PDE-5 inhibitor. It inhibits cGMP degradation and increases cGMP concentration, thereby causing smooth muscle relaxation and inducing penile erection.
3. Other medications: Non-SSRI antidepressants and α1-receptor blockers can also be used for treating premature ejaculation. For example, trazodone and tamsulosin affect nerve conduction through different mechanisms to achieve the effect of prolonging ejaculation.
Medication should be taken under the guidance of a qualified physician. If discomfort occurs, prompt medical attention is recommended.
