Dapoxetine
Poxet is prescribed for the treatment of premature ejaculation (PE), which ranks among the most prevalent forms of sexual dysfunction in men. It is characterized by early ejaculation occurring with minimal sexual stimulation, often before or shortly after penetration, leading to distress and relationship issues. Poxet aims to enhance control over ejaculation and extend the time before ejaculation happens during intercourse for men experiencing persistent or recurrent PE.
Poxet tablets are formulated with Dapoxetine, a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) specifically designed for addressing premature ejaculation (PE). Dapoxetine acts quickly, typically reaching its maximum effect within 1-2 hours and having a short half-life, resulting in rapid elimination from the body within 24 hours. The ejaculation reflex is governed by the sympathetic nervous system. When sexual stimulation exceeds a certain threshold, sensory nerve cells in the spinal cord become active, sending nerve impulses to the brain. The brain then communicates with the motor neurons controlling the penile muscles, leading to ejaculation. Serotonin, a crucial neurotransmitter in the brain involved in nerve signal transmission, is believed to influence this ejaculation reflex. Low serotonin levels in specific brain regions are thought to contribute to PE.
Dapoxetine in Poxet inhibits the reuptake of serotonin from the synapse—the gap where chemical messages travel between nerve cells. By blocking the reuptake process in the first nerve cell (pre-synaptic), more serotonin remains available for the receiving nerve cell (post-synaptic), facilitating prolonged communication between nerve cells. This mechanism of Dapoxetine in Poxet helps sustain sexual activity without premature ejaculation and allows for greater control over ejaculation.
The most frequently reported side effects of taking Poxet tablets include headache, gastrointestinal disturbances (such as nausea, diarrhea, dry mouth, and abdominal discomfort), dizziness, drowsiness, tremors, sleep difficulties, elevated blood pressure, erectile dysfunction, and decreased libido.
