Dejac 30 Tablet (Dapoxetine 30mg)

INTRODUCTION

DEJAC 30MG contains Dapoxetine which belongs to a group of medicines called selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) which is also known as urological medicine. It is used to treat premature ejaculation in men above 18 to 64 years of age. Premature ejaculation (PE) is a condition when a man ejaculates with little sexual stimulation and before the man wants. It is characterized by a lack of voluntary control over ejaculation that interferes with optimal sexual or psychological well-being in either partner.

Dapoxetine is a SSRI which has been promoted for delaying premature ejaculation. It acts rapidly and can be taken 1 hour before sexual intercourse and can also combined with behavioural therapies. It works by increasing the level of serotonin in the nervous system to increase the time taken to ejaculate and improve control over ejaculation.

Take DEJAC 30MG according to the dose and frequency as advised by your doctor. Swallow it as a whole. Before taking this medicine, tell your doctor if you have or had heart problems, depression, mania, epilepsy (seizure disorder or fits), liver or kidney disease and glaucoma. This medicine is not recommended for children and adolescents below 18 years of age. Do not drink grapefruit juice prior to taking this medicine. The common side effects are dizziness or nausea.
