Super P-Force (Sildenafil + Dapoxetine) — Patient Information (Australia)
Super P-Force is a combination medicine containing two active ingredients:
- Sildenafil (for erectile dysfunction)
- Dapoxetine (for premature ejaculation)
This page provides clear, patient-friendly information about what the medicine does, how it works, when to take it, common interactions, safety considerations, and practical tips for best results in an Australian setting.
Quick facts
- What it’s used for: Erectile dysfunction (ED) plus premature ejaculation (PE) in the same person.
- How it works: Sildenafil helps improve blood flow to the penis for stronger erections; dapoxetine helps delay ejaculation.
- Typical onset: Sildenafil often starts working within about 30–60 minutes; dapoxetine often works within about 1–2 hours.
- Timing: Usually taken on demand before sexual activity.
- Food & alcohol: High-fat meals may delay sildenafil; alcohol can worsen sexual performance and may increase side effects.
- Important safety: Do not use with nitrates or certain heart medicines that can dangerously lower blood pressure.

How Super P-Force works (mechanism of action)
Sildenafil (PDE5 inhibitor)
Sildenafil belongs to a group of medicines called PDE5 inhibitors. During sexual stimulation, natural chemical signals increase blood flow to the penis. Sildenafil works by:
- Blocking PDE5 (a chemical that breaks down cGMP)
- Increasing cGMP levels, which supports relaxation of blood vessel walls
- Improving blood flow, helping you achieve and maintain an erection more easily
Sildenafil helps with the erectile response only when sexual stimulation is present.
Dapoxetine (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor, SSRI)
Dapoxetine helps treat premature ejaculation mainly by affecting serotonin signalling in the brain. It:
- Increases serotonin availability by inhibiting serotonin reuptake
- Helps regulate ejaculation timing, typically leading to better control during sexual activity
Because dapoxetine influences the nervous system, it may also cause side effects such as nausea or dizziness in some people.
Pharmacokinetics: how the body processes it
Pharmacokinetics describes how the body absorbs, distributes, metabolises, and eliminates medicine.
Sildenafil
- Absorption: Sildenafil is absorbed after an oral dose. Peak levels often occur within about 30–120 minutes.
- Distribution: It distributes throughout the body and is highly protein bound.
- Metabolism: Mainly metabolised in the liver (primarily by CYP3A4).
- Elimination: Excreted mainly via faeces and, to a lesser extent, urine. The effective duration is often several hours, though exact timing varies by person.
Dapoxetine
- Absorption: Dapoxetine is absorbed after oral administration, with peak levels typically reached within 1–2 hours.
- Metabolism: Metabolised in the liver.
- Elimination: Removed from the body mainly as metabolites, with a relatively short effective dosing window for “on-demand” use.
Practical meaning: Taking the medicine at the right time supports the best chance of erections and ejaculation control during planned sexual activity.
What it’s typically used for (indications)
Super P-Force is used for adults who experience both:
- Erectile dysfunction (difficulty achieving or maintaining an erection sufficient for satisfactory sexual activity)
- Premature ejaculation (ejaculation that happens sooner than desired)
It is designed for on-demand sexual activity rather than continuous treatment, depending on the prescribed product instructions.
Typical dosing and timing
Important: The exact dose depends on the strength of your tablet and your personal safety profile. Always follow the instructions provided with your medication and pharmacist guidance.
General timing guidance
- On-demand use: Take it before sexual activity so that both components are active.
- Sildenafil timing: Often works within 30–60 minutes.
- Dapoxetine timing: Often works within around 1–2 hours.
Common practical approach: Many people find success by taking the tablet about 1 hour before sex, but you should use the timing that matches your response and the product’s instructions.
Dosing frequency
- Do not exceed the maximum daily dose on the label or as instructed.
- Because dapoxetine can affect the nervous system and increase side effects, frequent dosing may raise risk.
- If you experience troublesome side effects, spacing doses farther apart is often safer.
Missed dose
Because this is typically taken on-demand, there is usually no “missed dose” concept. Take it only when you plan sexual activity, following label directions.
How to take Super P-Force (practical use tips)
- Take with water: Swallow the tablet whole with water.
- Plan ahead: Choose a time when you can be calm and relaxed—sexual performance improves with reduced anxiety.
- Allow time: Give the medicine time to work before sexual stimulation.
- Sexual stimulation is still required: Sildenafil supports erections but won’t create an erection without arousal.
- Start gradually: If you are new to this kind of medicine, consider using the lowest effective dose as advised.
- Hydration: Dehydration can worsen dizziness or headaches—drink fluids normally.
If you’re unsure about timing, dose strength, or suitability, a healthcare professional or pharmacist can help you tailor the plan safely.
Food interactions: what to eat and what to avoid
Effects of food
Sildenafil can be affected by food, especially high-fat meals.
- High-fat meals: May delay onset and reduce the speed of effectiveness.
- Smaller or lighter meals: Often have less impact.
Dapoxetine may also be affected by stomach contents. If you experience nausea, try taking the tablet with a light meal or follow your pharmacist’s advice.
Practical eating advice
- If you plan to take it before sex, consider having a lighter meal or avoid very heavy, fatty meals beforehand.
- Stay consistent: if you usually eat the same way before sex, you can better judge your ideal timing.
Alcohol and medicine interactions
Alcohol
Alcohol can:
- Reduce erection quality and sexual performance
- Increase side effects such as dizziness, flushing, headache, or low blood pressure
- Increase the chance of feeling faint, especially when combined with sildenafil
Recommendation: Keep alcohol to a minimum. If you drink, do so in moderation and avoid binge drinking.
Other medicine interactions
Some interactions can be serious. Always check your medication list with a pharmacist, particularly if you take medicines for the heart, blood pressure, or mood.
Common interaction categories to be cautious with
- Nitrates (for chest pain/angina) — can cause dangerous blood pressure drops with sildenafil.
- “Riociguat” (for pulmonary hypertension) — may be unsafe with PDE5 inhibitors.
- Strong CYP3A4 inhibitors (some antifungals and certain antibiotics) — can increase sildenafil levels and side effects.
- Some antidepressants or serotonergic medicines — may increase risk of serotonin-related side effects when combined with dapoxetine.
- Other PDE5 inhibitors — avoid doubling doses.
- Blood pressure medicines — combined effects may lower blood pressure.
Special caution: Dapoxetine (an SSRI-type medicine) can interact with other serotonergic drugs. This can raise the risk of serotonin syndrome, a medical emergency. If you take antidepressants or migraine medicines, check carefully.
Safety profile: who should take extra care
Common side effects
Many people tolerate Super P-Force well, but side effects can occur. Commonly reported effects include:
- Headache
- Flushing or warmth
- Dizziness
- Nausea
- Indigestion
- Fatigue
With dapoxetine, some people experience:
- Dry mouth
- Sleep changes
- Vivid dreams or changes in mood
- Feeling faint (less commonly)
Seek urgent medical help if
- You experience chest pain, severe dizziness, or fainting

- You have a prolonged painful erection (an emergency)
When it may be unsuitable
This medicine may be unsafe or require careful adjustment in people with certain conditions, for example:
- Heart conditions where sexual activity or sildenafil is not recommended
- Very low blood pressure or recent fainting episodes
- Significant liver impairment (dapoxetine may be unsafe)
- History of seizures or certain neurological conditions
- Use of interacting antidepressants or serotonergic drugs (needs safety review)
If you have any ongoing medical condition, it’s wise to discuss your suitability with a pharmacist or doctor.
Drug and medical condition interactions (high-yield checklist)
