What is Poxet 90  

Poxet 90 mg contains the active ingredient Dapoxetine is used for treating Premature Ejaculation in men. 

It improves ejaculatory control and delays ejaculation during sexual encounters.

It enhances male performance and boosts sexual satisfaction.

Poxet-90 is a prescription-only medication purchased at a doctor's suggestion.

Sunrise Remedies Pvt Ltd. is one of the best pharmaceutical companies manufacturing Poxet 90 mg.

Uses of Poxet 90

Dapoxetine is the main ingredient in Poxet Tablets, which is well-known for treating Premature Ejaculation. 

Premature Ejaculation is when a male ejaculates earlier than desired.

Despite little to no sexual arousal, it is an uncontrollable ejaculation that may occur before, during, or soon after penetration.

Medications, counseling, or a combination of both can help in treating Premature Ejaculation. 

Dapoxetine can be combined with Sildenafil to treat both Premature Ejaculation as well as Erectile Dysfunction.

How does Poxet 90 work 

Lower levels of Serotonin results in poorer control over Ejaculation.

Dapoxetine, the salt in Poxet, is a Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor (SSRI) that blocks Serotonin's reabsorption (reuptake) into neurons.

By preventing reabsorption, it makes more Serotonin available, which helps nerve cells to communicate with each other for longer.

Increased Serotonin levels help to improve control over Ejaculation and increase the time to ejaculate.

Is Dapoxetine used for Erectile Dysfunction?

Dapoxetine treats Premature Ejaculation when taken 1 to 3 hours before sexual activity. It does not treat Erectile Dysfunction.
