Abstract

Premature ejaculation (PE) and erectile dysfunction (ED) are the most prevalent sexual disorders in men. ED is commonly reported among patients with PE.Although recent guidelines recommend to treat ED first in men with both PE and ED, this recommendation is not based on evidence and there is limited data about the efficacy and safety of dapoxetin / sildenafil combination therapy for these patients. The aim of this study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of the dapoxetine / sildenafil combination (Dapoxil 30/50 mg film-coated tablet) in the treatment of patients with PE and concomitant ED. In a single-center, single-arm, open-label clinical study, 74 patients with lifelong / acquired PE and ED were included between October 2016 to September 2017.Patients received on demand dapoxetine / sildenafil (30/50 mg film-coated tablets) 1-3 hours before sexual intercourse for 4 weeks (2 days a week and no more than once a day). All patients were instructed to record their intravaginal ejaculatory latency time (IELT). They were also instructed to complete Premature Ejaculation Diagnostic Tool (PEDT), Premature Ejaculation Profile (PEP) and International Index of Erectile Function-Erectile Function (IIEF-EF) score before and after the treatment. At the end of the study, patients were assessed with global impression of change (GIC) for the treatment satisfaction.
