Abstract

In parallel with the increased recognition of organic causes of erectile dysfunction, several new physical methods of treatment have been developed for this problem. These include intracavernosal injections of vasodilators, penile prostheses, vascular surgery, vacuum condoms, and medication. However, psychological treatment approaches are still of considerable importance in the treatment of both erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation.

[Paroxetine in the treatment of premature ejaculation].

This study evaluated paroxetine as a possible treatment for premature ejaculation. Sixty two patients affected by primary premature ejaculation were randomly assigned to two groups. A and B, and treated with two different treatment schedules. Patients assigned to group A were treated with paroxetine 20 mg p.o. daily for six months; patients assigned to group B were treated with paroxetine 20 mg p.o. daily for fourteen days, and than dose was reduced to 10 mg for a total treatment period of six months. Only one patient reported significative side effects (weakness). Positive clinical results were obtained, at the end of the treatment, in 89 per cent of group A and 88 per cent of group B. In patients with primary premature ejaculation, paroxetine represents, in our opinion, the best therapeutic option for its efficacy and lack of significant side effects.
