Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Average intravaginal ejaculatory latency time (IELT), as measured by stopwatch, during sexual intercourse at the end of the treatment period (Week 12) for both doses of dapoxetine
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Control over ejaculation, satisfaction with sexual intercourse, and severity of symptom impressions, based on questions asked at monthly intervals through Week 12; incidence, severity, and type of adverse events throughout study; medication helpfulness

- blood pressure \< = 180/100 mmHg at screening and end of baseline
- patient and partner must agree to attempt sexual intercourse at minimum intervals specified in the protocol
- patient's partner must have a negative urine pregnancy test at time of screening
You may not qualify if:
- Not taken dapoxetine in a previous investigational drug study
