Product Description
- Indication: A higher-strength medication indicated for the treatment of premature ejaculation (PE) in adult men aged 18 to 64 years.
- Action: Contains 60 mg of Dapoxetine, designed to significantly increase the time to ejaculation and improve conscious control.
- Suitability: Typically prescribed for patients who need a stronger effect than the standard 30 mg dose and have tolerated the medication well.
- Usage Type: Intended for "on-demand" use rather than daily continuous treatment.
How to use
- Dosage: Take one 60 mg tablet as prescribed. This strength is often prescribed if the 30 mg dose was insufficient.
- Timing: Consume approximately 1 to 3 hours before sexual activity.
- Administration: Swallow the tablet whole with a full glass of water. Adequate hydration is essential to reduce the risk of fainting (syncope).
- Frequency: Do not exceed one tablet within a 24-hour period.
Caution & Warnings
- Higher Strength Warning: As this is the 60 mg dose, the risk of side effects such as dizziness and fainting may be higher than with the 30 mg dose. Stand up slowly from sitting or lying positions.
- Contraindications: Do not use if you have heart failure, rhythm disorders, or moderate to severe liver impairment.
- Alcohol: Strictly avoid alcohol consumption, as it potentiates the neurocognitive effects of the drug (drowsiness, fainting).
- Interactions: Do not take with MAOIs, Thioridazine, Lithium, or potent CYP3A4 inhibitors. Allow a 14-day washout period after stopping these meds before taking Lejam.
