FAQ
How does Priligy work?
Priligy contains the active drug dapoxetine which belongs to a class of drugs called selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (also known as SSRIs). SSRIs work by increasing the level of serotonin in the nervous system. Although it is not known precisely why increasing the levels of serotonin in the nervous system improves the time it takes to ejaculate.
Is it safe to use Priligy dapoxetine continuously?
Priligy dapoxetine should not be taken on a continual daily basis without sexual activity and should only be taken before sexual activity as directed. A maximum of one Priligy tablet is to be taken in 24 hours.
How long will it take for Priligy dapoxetine to work?
The maximum effects of Priligy dapoxetine occur one to two hours after taking the tablet.
Can I take Priligy and drink alcohol?
Taking Priligy after drinking alcohol can increase feelings of dizziness, drowsiness and slow reactions.
Priligy can also cause you to faint by temporarily lowering your blood pressure; therefore, it is not recommended to take Priligy and drink alcohol together.
