Premature ejaculation (pe) occurs when men cannot control semen flow or have excessive sensitivity. So, before treatment, you should precisely diagnose the cause of your problem.

It is easily curable- but needs time. Usually most cases respond to sex therapy and exercises and using few simple tips. So, e men may need drug to cure this.
PE and OCD are sometimes raletd

Sertraline is an ssri, it should be safe if your liver and kidney are healthy. Sertraline usual dose is around 50 mg. Usually antidepressants are taken long term as opposed to benzodiazepines that are short term. You should be fine, given you exercise daily, stay relaxed. There is no such thing as safest antidepressant, all antidepressants have their own side effects profile.
But you may try mirtazapine as it has least side effects.

My doctor is changing me from sertraline 200 mg to escitalopram 20 mg, because of ongoing side effects on sertraline. This is the cross taper schedule: for 6-7 days: reduce from 200 mg to 150 mg sertraline further 6-7 days: reduce from 150 mg to 100 mg sertraline further 6-7 days: reduce from 100 mg sertraline to 50 mg sertraline and add 5 mg escitalopram further 6-7 days: reduce 50 mg sertraline to 25 mg sertraline, increase escitalopram to 10 mg. To finish: stop sertraline altogether, continue with 20 mg escitalopram. Does this cross taper seem okay? I am trying to reduce the risk of sertraline withdrawal. I also have a fear of vomiting. Is this schedule likely to make me vomit? Or should I avoid most withdrawal? I am on my second week now, so I am now on 100 mg sertraline. What side effects can be expected when going from 150 mg-100 mg sertraline? Thanks for the help and information.

It may be in your best interest to follow the regimen prescribed by your psychiatrist and openly discuss your fear of withdrawal and induction of vomiting with him. The regimen of psychiatric medication is very essential. It maybe helpful to go along with their recommendation. If you see any side effects, complete the dosage as prescribed and then follow up with your doctor. Sometimes side effects come from your b...more

There is nothing called better or inferior. All medications are tailored to an individual depending on the symptoms, response and tolerability. Over the Counter self medication and self medication by googling is dangerous to one's body and mind. Lorazepam is a benzodiazepine and can cause severe dependence and side effects on a longer run. Escitalopram ad Sertraline are SSRI's and need to be prescribed carefully adjusting/ titrating dosage by a psychiatrist. Hope this info helps.

Daxid is far superior as it come from reputed pfizer, but there are generic advocates who say they are the same. It is like 24k gold and 18k gold. Both are gold only. You make a choice.
