How to take it

Always take sertraline as instructed by your healthcare provider. Sertraline is taken daily, even if you don’t expect to have sex every day. It should be taken at the same time every day, and can be taken with or without food. If you have trouble sleeping, it's best to take sertraline in the morning.

Common side effects of sertraline

Potential side effects can include fatigue, problems sleeping, reduced appetite, headaches, dizziness, diarrhea, dry mouth, changes in body weight, and erectile dysfunction. Some men take sertraline with a prescription ED medication to prevent sexual side effects.

Sertraline?

Sertraline helps balance your serotonin levels, which can help delay ejaculation and lead to longer-lasting sex.

How It Helps

Helps balance serotonin levels

Sertraline helps block the reabsorption of serotonin into neurons. This makes more serotonin available to improve transmission of messages between neurons.

Delays ejaculation

Balanced serotonin levels can help men control their climax during sex.

Supports sexual performance

When men are able to control their climax and prevent premature ejaculation, they are able to enjoy more satisfying, longer-lasting sex with their partner.

However, some people may prefer to take a pill only when they plan to have sex instead of daily. For example: people who have sex once or twice a month may not want to take a pill daily. Some people also may just not like the idea of having to take medicine every day.
