Why is it important?
Premature ejaculation (PE) is the commonest sexual problem in men affecting up to 75% of men at some point in their lives1 and up to almost 40% of men.
Perspectives
Tramadol seems to be a useful and well-tolerated oral treatment of premature ejaculation on as-needed basis. Opportunities exist for discovering and developing drugs for PE. The positive results from this drug indicate that clinical experiments should continue with various drug regimens and study settings.
