Dapoxetine
DAPOXETINE
Overview:
Dapoxetine is a short-acting selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) specifically developed for the treatment of premature ejaculation (PE) in men.
Classification:
Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI)
Uses:
Used to treat premature ejaculation in adult men.
Improves control over ejaculation.
Enhances sexual satisfaction for both partners.
Helps reduce anxiety associated with premature ejaculation.
How It Works:
Dapoxetine is a short-acting selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI). It works by increasing serotonin activity in the central nervous system — particularly in areas of the brain and spinal cord that regulate ejaculatory reflexes.Serotonin (5-HT) is a neurotransmitter that plays a key role in inhibiting ejaculation. By blocking the reuptake of serotonin at the synapse, dapoxetine enhances serotonin signaling, which helps delay ejaculation, increase intravaginal ejaculatory latency time (IELT), and improve control over ejaculation.
Dosage:
As prescribed by your doctor.
Side Effects:
Nausea
Headache
Diarrhea
Insomnia (difficulty sleeping)
Fatigue
Increased sweating (hyperhidrosis)
Anxiety
Precautions:
Dapoxetine should be used with caution and only under medical supervision, especially in individuals with underlying health conditions. It is contraindicated in patients with significant heart problems, such as arrhythmias, heart failure, or a history of fainting, due to the risk of syncope (sudden loss of consciousness) and orthostatic hypotension (a drop in blood pressure when standing up). It should also not be used by those with moderate to severe liver impairment, and caution is advised in patients with kidney disease.

Tadalafil
TADALAFIL
Overview:
Tadalafil is a medicine used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED) and symptoms of an enlarged prostate (BPH). It works by relaxing blood vessels, which improves blood flow to the penis for stronger erections and can also ease urinary problems caused by BPH. Common side effects are usually mild, like headache, flushing, or back pain, but people with heart problems or those on nitrates should avoid it.
Classification: Phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitor
Uses:
Tadalafil is mainly used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED), helping men achieve and maintain stronger erections. It is also prescribed for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) to ease urinary symptoms like frequent or difficult urination. In some cases, it is used to treat pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) to improve exercise capacity by relaxing blood vessels in the lungs.
How it works:
Tadalafil works by relaxing blood vessels. It blocks an enzyme called PDE5, which normally reduces blood flow in certain areas. By doing this, it increases blood flow to the penis, helping achieve and maintain erections, and can also improve urinary symptoms from an enlarged prostate or enhance blood flow in the lungs for certain conditions.
Dosage: As prescribed by your doctor.
Side Effects:
- Headache
- Flushing (warmth or redness in the face)
- Indigestion or upset stomach
- Back or muscle pain
- Nasal congestion (stuffy nose)
Precautions:
Before taking Tadalafil, make sure your doctor knows if you have heart problems, low blood pressure, or a history of stroke, since it affects blood flow. Don’t use it if you’re taking nitrates for chest pain, because the combination can dangerously lower your blood pressure. People with kidney or liver issues should be extra careful, and it’s important to tell your doctor about all other medications you’re using. If you notice sudden vision or hearing changes, chest pain, or a prolonged erection, seek medical help immediately.
