About the drug Priligy

Nearly 30 percent of males across the world are affected with the condition known as Premature Ejaculation – PE and in spite of such a remarkable shocking percentage there are hardly any effective medications designed for treating this condition. However, one drug is of course in the research phase now and the researchers are well working with Johnson & Johnson for developing their branded medication Priligy using Dapoxetine Hydrochloride as its active pharmaceutical ingredient.

Though this very product has been issued the ‘Non-approvable’ letter by the FDA during October 2005, the company is highly hopeful of getting the formal approval. The DFA has anyway indicated that further research is required for addressing the questions with the medication before it is awarded the final approval.

The innovative medication Priligy – Dapoxetine belongs to the category of Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor – SSRIs with a short half-life of merely 1 or 2 hours. It helps getting the apex plasma levels within one hour so in short the drug effect gets in faster and gets out faster as well. The short half-life means that the males could probably take this medication when required instead of relatively building up the typical level in the body like that of the traditional SSRIs due to the short half-life it does not gather in the system and source other side effects like loss of libido.

There are further lines of study for Priligy – Dapoxetine Hydrochloride that may incorporate considering various dose strengths of this medication for fluctuating levels of ejaculation latency time – ELT.
