Super P-Force (Sildenafil + Dapoxetine) – Patient Information (UK)

Super P-Force is a combination medicine containing sildenafil and . It is used for men who experience both:

• Erectile dysfunction (ED) (difficulty getting or maintaining an erection), and
• Premature ejaculation (ejaculation that happens too quickly, often with distress or loss of control).

This page explains how the medicine works, when and how to take it, potential side effects, interactions (including with alcohol), and practical tips for safe use in the United Kingdom.

1. Basic product information

Important: Product strengths can vary by presentation. Always check the strength on the pack. This information is general and does not replace advice from a healthcare professional.

2. How Super P-Force works (mechanism of action)

Super P-Force combines two medicines that target different parts of sexual function:

2.1 Sildenafil

• Sildenafil is a PDE5 inhibitor (phosphodiesterase type 5).
• It helps increase blood flow to the penis by relaxing blood vessels.
• This effect depends on sexual stimulation; it does not automatically cause an erection without arousal.

2.2 Dapoxetine

• Dapoxetine is an SSRI-like (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor) medicine designed to reduce rapid ejaculation.
• It works by affecting serotonin signalling in the brain, which can improve control over ejaculation.

3. Pharmacokinetics (how the body handles the medicines)

“Pharmacokinetics” describes absorption, distribution, metabolism, and elimination. Exact values can vary by person and formulation, but the overall pattern is typical for these medicines.

3.1 Sildenafil

• Absorption: Absorbs after taking by mouth.
• Onset: Often begins working within about 30–60 minutes, with best effects commonly between 1–2 hours.
• Metabolism: Mainly processed in the liver (notably by CYP enzymes).
• Elimination: Broken down and removed via urine and faeces.

3.2 Dapoxetine

• Absorption: Absorbs after taking by mouth.
• Onset: Often begins working within about 1–2 hours.
• Metabolism: Processed by the liver (also involves specific enzymes).
• Elimination: Metabolites are removed primarily through the kidneys.

Because both ingredients are processed by the body, factors such as liver function, interacting medicines, and overall health may affect results.

4. Indications (what it is used for)

Super P-Force is intended for men who have:

• Erectile dysfunction (difficulty achieving or maintaining an erection sufficient for satisfactory sexual activity), and
• Premature ejaculation (including persistent or recurrent ejaculation with minimal stimulation before desired timing, causing distress).

It should not be used by women, children, or adolescents.

5. Typical use and timing

Super P-Force is usually taken on demand—that means you take a dose before sexual activity rather than every day.

5.1 When to take it

• Many people find it works best when taken about 1–2 hours before sex.
• Some effects may be felt earlier, but planning for the 1–2 hour window is a common approach.

5.2 How often to take it

Do not exceed the maximum frequency stated on your product packaging or leaflet. If you are unsure, speak to a qualified healthcare professional or pharmacist.

As a guide, dapoxetine is generally used in “as-needed” dosing for premature ejaculation and has specific maximum dose limits. Sildenafil also has dose and frequency limits. Overuse increases the risk of side effects such as dizziness, low blood pressure, and serotonin-related adverse effects.

6. Dosing guidance (general)

Always follow the strength and instructions on the product you receive. Super P-Force formulations may vary, so the dose that is suitable for one pack may differ from another.

6.1 Starting dose

• For many users, the lowest effective dose is preferred to reduce side effects.
• If you have previously used sildenafil or dapoxetine, your clinician/pharmacist may adjust your approach, but you should not self-modify beyond the labelled directions.

6.2 Taking with water

• Take the tablet/s with a glass of water.
• Avoid taking more than the recommended amount to “speed it up”.

If you miss a planned dose: Take it only if it is still reasonably close to when you plan to have sex. Do not take extra doses to compensate.

7. Food interactions (including fatty meals)

Food can affect how quickly sildenafil and dapoxetine are absorbed. A heavy or fatty meal may delay onset, meaning it could take longer to work.

• If possible, try taking Super P-Force on a relatively lighter stomach (or avoid very heavy/fatty meals right before).
• If you do eat a large meal, you may need to allow more time before sex—often more than the usual 1–2 hours.

8. Alcohol interactions (and practical advice)

Alcohol may increase the risk of side effects, particularly:

• Dizziness and light-headedness
• Low blood pressure (especially with sildenafil)
• Reduced erection quality (alcohol can impair sexual performance)
• Nausea and “feeling unwell”

It is generally sensible to limit alcohol when using Super P-Force. If you plan to drink, do so moderately and avoid drinking heavily, particularly around the time of taking the dose.

9. Medicine interactions (including common UK-relevant medicines)

Interactions can be serious. Always check interactions if you take other medicines regularly, including over-the-counter products. Below are key interaction categories to be aware of.

9.1 Nitrates and “nitric oxide” medicines

Do not use sildenafil-containing products with nitrates (e.g., glyceryl trinitrate) or other medicines that release nitric oxide, as this can cause a dangerous drop in blood pressure.

9.2 Alpha-blockers (for prostate symptoms or blood pressure)

• Some alpha-blockers can lower blood pressure.
• The combination with sildenafil may increase risks like dizziness or fainting.

9.3 Strong CYP450 inhibitors

Sildenafil and dapoxetine are metabolised via liver enzymes. Medicines that strongly inhibit these pathways may increase blood levels and side effects. Examples include some antifungals and some antibiotics (and other specialist medicines).

9.4 Medicines affecting serotonin

Dapoxetine acts on serotonin systems. Interactions can raise the risk of serotonin syndrome or severe side effects. Avoid combining with certain medicines that increase serotonin activity unless advised by a clinician.

Examples of interacting medicines may include (not exhaustive):

• Other antidepressants of the SSRI/SNRI type
• Some migraine medicines (triptans)
• Linezolid (an antibiotic)
• Tramadol (pain medicine)
• St John’s wort (herbal)

9.5 Other ED medicines

• Do not combine sildenafil with other PDE5 inhibitors (e.g., tadalafil, vardenafil) unless specifically advised.
• Combining increases side effects without improving safety.

9.6 Blood pressure and heart medicines

If you take medicines for high blood pressure, angina, rhythm problems, or heart failure, discuss suitability with a healthcare professional. Sildenafil can affect blood pressure and may not be appropriate for all cardiac conditions.

9.7 Recreational drugs (“party drugs”)

Avoid combining with recreational stimulants or drugs that affect blood pressure/heart rate. Certain substances can also increase the risk of serotonin-related complications.

Always inform your pharmacist of everything you take—prescription medicines, pharmacy medicines, and supplements.

10. Safety profile: who should be cautious

Like all medicines, Super P-Force can cause side effects. Many are mild and temporary, but some require prompt medical attention. Your overall health and medical history matter.

10.1 Do not use / seek urgent advice if you have certain risks

• A history of severe cardiovascular disease, unstable angina, or recent serious heart events (unless cleared by a clinician).
• Use of nitrates or “nitro” medicines.
• Certain uncontrolled heart rhythm problems or very low blood pressure.
• Known hypersensitivity to sildenafil, dapoxetine, or similar medicines.
• History of fainting or significant dizziness with similar medicines.
• Severe liver impairment or significant kidney problems (dapoxetine dosing may be restricted).

10.2 Common side effects

These may occur, especially after starting or if the dose is too high:

• Headache
• Flushing (warmth/redness)
• Dizziness or light-headedness
• Nausea
• Indigestion
• Fatigue
• Dry mouth
• Sleepiness or unusual tiredness

10.3 More serious side effects (seek medical help urgently)

Stop using and seek urgent medical advice if you experience:

• Chest pain, severe shortness of breath, or symptoms that feel like a heart problem
• Fainting or severe dizziness
• Sudden vision changes (including partial/complete vision loss)
• Sudden hearing changes (rare)
• Prolonged erection (an erection lasting longer than advised for PDE5 inhibitors; this is an emergency)
• Signs of serotonin syndrome such as agitation, confusion, fever, sweating, shaking/tremor, diarrhoea, or muscle stiffness
• Severe allergic reaction such as swelling of face/lips, rash, or difficulty breathing

11. Practical use tips (to get the best and safest results)

• Try a first dose when you can relax: This helps you gauge how you feel (dizziness, headache, nausea).
• Time it right: Many people do best with a 1–2 hour lead time.
• Avoid heavy meals beforehand: They may delay onset.
• Limit alcohol: To reduce dizziness and improve performance.
• Do not “stack” doses: If it doesn’t work as expected, do not take extra tablets that night.
• Stay mindful of driving: If you feel dizzy, do not drive or operate machinery.
• Use alongside lifestyle support: Stress reduction, pelvic floor exercises, and consistent sexual routines may help.
• Consider your mental health: Dapoxetine can affect mood/alertness in some people. If you have a history of depression or agitation, seek tailored advice.

12. Alternative options (depending on your symptoms)

If you have ED, premature ejaculation, or both, there are different treatment paths. Your best option depends on your medical history and which symptoms matter most.

12.1 ED-focused alternatives

• Sildenafil alone or other PDE5 inhibitors (such as tadalafil or vardenafil) depending on suitability.
• Non-drug options such as vacuum erection devices.
• Addressing causes (e.g., diabetes, smoking, alcohol intake, stress).

12.2 Premature ejaculation-focused alternatives

• Dapoxetine alone (if ED isn’t the main issue).
• Behavioural techniques (start-stop methods) and counselling for sexual performance anxiety.
• Other prescription-only options may be considered by clinicians for long-term control.

12.3 Combined approaches

• For men with both conditions, a combination like Super P-Force can be convenient.
• However, in some cases, treating each condition separately may allow more flexible dose adjustment.

13. UK market and legal context (overview)

In the United Kingdom, medicines containing sildenafil and dapoxetine are regulated under medicines legislation and must meet requirements for safe supply. Online pharmacies should only supply medicines that are lawfully authorised and sourced from compliant supply chains.

16. FAQ (frequently asked questions)

How quickly does Super P-Force work?

Many users notice effects within about 30–60 minutes for sildenafil, with the combined effect often best around 1–2 hours. Heavy meals may delay the onset.

Can I take it with food?

Yes, but a heavy or fatty meal may slow how quickly it starts working. For best timing, consider taking it on a lighter stomach.

How long does it last?

Effects typically last long enough for sexual activity, but the exact duration varies. If you experience side effects, they may also last into the next hours. Do not take additional doses to “extend” the effect.

Is it safe to drink alcohol?

Alcohol can increase dizziness and low blood pressure risk and may reduce erection quality. If you drink, keep it moderate and avoid heavy drinking around the time of use.

What should I avoid using with Super P-Force?

Key avoidances include nitrates (for example glyceryl trinitrate), and medicines that strongly increase serotonin activity unless specifically advised. Also avoid combining with other ED medicines like PDE5 inhibitors unless a clinician directs it.

What if it doesn’t work?

First, check timing (often 1–2 hours), whether alcohol/heavy food delayed absorption, and whether you are using the correct dose. If problems continue, it may be due to underlying causes such as stress, diabetes, smoking, or cardiovascular factors—seek professional advice.

Can women use Super P-Force?

This medicine is intended for men with ED and premature ejaculation. It is not for use by women.

Are there any warning signs I should take seriously?

Yes. Seek urgent medical help for chest pain, fainting, severe dizziness, sudden vision/hearing changes, prolonged erection, severe allergic reaction, or symptoms suggestive of serotonin syndrome.

Can I drive after taking it?

If you feel dizzy, drowsy, or light-headed, do not drive or operate machinery. Effects vary by person.

Is it suitable if I have high blood pressure?

Sometimes, but it depends on the cause and the medicines you take. Sildenafil can lower blood pressure. Discuss suitability—especially if you take nitrates, alpha-blockers, or multiple cardiovascular medicines.

How do I store it?

Store as directed on the pack, usually at room temperature away from heat and moisture. Keep out of reach of children.
