Premature ejaculation medication is a medically proven option for men experiencing premature ejaculation (PE). EMLA is a topical anaesthetic cream containing Lidocaine 2.5% + Prilocaine 2.5%, manufactured by AstraZeneca / Aspen. While its primary indication is local anaesthesia before medical procedures, it is widely used off-label to help delay ejaculation.
📊 Key Statistics
- Premature Ejaculation (PE) — Affects approximately 20–30% of men worldwide, making it the most common male sexual dysfunction
- EMLA Cream works by reducing sensation at the application site, effectively delaying ejaculation
- Primary indication of EMLA is local anaesthesia before procedures, but research supports its use for PE
- See other premature ejaculation treatments in the Premature Ejaculation collection
🏭 EMLA is manufactured by AstraZeneca / Aspen, a globally recognised topical anaesthetic cream containing Lidocaine 2.5% and Prilocaine 2.5%. Internationally certified quality standards.
⚠️ Always wipe off the cream before penetration to prevent numbing your partner. Avoid excessive application, which may result in too much loss of sensation.
About EMLA
What is EMLA?
EMLA is a topical anaesthetic cream containing Lidocaine 2.5% + Prilocaine 2.5% as its active ingredients. It belongs to the Topical Anesthetic drug class and is manufactured by AstraZeneca / Aspen.
EMLA works by blocking sodium channels at nerve endings, reducing nerve signal transmission in the applied area. This decreases pain sensation or sensitivity to touch.
When used off-label for premature ejaculation, application to the glans penis reduces sensitivity and effectively delays ejaculation.
The primary indication for EMLA is local anaesthesia before medical procedures such as blood draws, injections, or minor skin procedures.
What is EMLA used for?
Off-label use for Premature Ejaculation (PE): EMLA can be applied to the penis to reduce sensitivity and delay ejaculation, effectively prolonging time to climax.
Primary indication: Local anaesthesia before medical procedures such as blood draws, injections, and skin procedures.
Other uses:
- Local anaesthesia before laser skin treatments
- Pain reduction before hair removal
- Numbing before ear piercing or tattooing
Important: When used for PE, always wipe off the cream before penetration to prevent numbing your partner. Alternatively, use with a condom to prevent transfer of the anaesthetic.
How to Use EMLA for PE / Dosage
Usage for PE: Apply a thin layer of EMLA cream to the glans penis approximately 20–30 minutes before intercourse.
Steps:
- Apply a thin layer to the glans penis area
- Wait approximately 20–30 minutes for the drug to take effect
- Wipe off the cream completely before penetration
- Or wear a condom to prevent the anaesthetic from affecting your partner
Precautions:
- Do not over-apply — excessive numbing may result in complete loss of sensation
- Avoid application on open wounds or inflamed mucous membranes
- Test with a small amount first to check if the level of numbness is appropriate
- Do not use too frequently to avoid irritation
Side Effects of EMLA
Common side effects:
- Excessive numbness at the application site — may cause temporary loss of sensation
- Skin irritation such as redness, itching, or mild burning
- Partner may experience numbness if the cream is not wiped off before contact
Less common side effects:
- Allergic contact dermatitis
- Swelling at the application site
Serious side effects (very rare):
- Methemoglobinemia — if used in excessive amounts over large areas, especially when combined with other risk-increasing medications
- Anaphylaxis — extremely rare
Important: Most side effects are localised, mild, and resolve after washing off the cream.
Contraindications & Precautions
Do not use:
- Allergy to Lidocaine, Prilocaine, or any amide-type local anaesthetic
- Congenital or idiopathic methemoglobinemia
- Infants under 12 months receiving medications that increase methemoglobinemia risk
Use with caution:
- Do not apply on open wounds, inflamed mucous membranes, or broken skin
- Avoid contact with eyes
- Caution when using with other drugs that may cause methemoglobinemia such as sulfonamides, nitrates, dapsone
- Severe liver disease — hepatic metabolism may be reduced
- G6PD deficiency — increased risk of methemoglobinemia
How Does EMLA Compare to Other PE Medications?
EMLA vs. Lidocaine Spray: Both are topical anaesthetics, but EMLA is a cream that penetrates deeper due to its Lidocaine + Prilocaine formulation. Lidocaine Spray is more convenient with shorter wait times, but numbing may be uneven. EMLA provides more consistent anaesthesia as a cream application.
EMLA vs. Priligy (Dapoxetine): Completely different mechanisms. EMLA is a topical anaesthetic (external), while Priligy is an oral SSRI that works through the central nervous system. Priligy delays ejaculation systemically without reducing sensation, but has more systemic side effects like nausea and dizziness. EMLA has localised side effects only.
How Long Does EMLA Take to Work?
EMLA starts working within 20–30 minutes of application. The numbing effect lasts approximately 1–2 hours after wiping off the cream, depending on the amount applied and duration of exposure.
Onset timeline:
- 5–10 minutes: Mild numbness begins
- 20–30 minutes: Full anaesthetic effect — ideal time to wipe off and begin activity
- 30–60 minutes: Continued numbing effect
- 1–2 hours: Numbness gradually fades; sensation returns to normal
Application duration affects the level of numbness — longer application = more numbness. We recommend experimenting to find the duration that works best for you.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. While EMLA's primary indication is local anaesthesia before procedures, multiple studies support that applying EMLA to the glans penis can significantly delay ejaculation by reducing penile sensitivity. Some doctors recommend this approach for premature ejaculation.
Yes. Always wipe off the cream completely before penetration to prevent numbing your partner. Alternatively, you can wear a condom after applying the cream and waiting for it to take effect, which prevents transfer of the anaesthetic.
It depends on the amount applied and the duration of exposure. Over-applying or leaving it on too long can cause excessive numbness. Start with a small amount and experiment to find the right level. Typically, a thin layer left on for 20–30 minutes provides an appropriate level of numbness.
EMLA is a cream containing Lidocaine + Prilocaine that provides more consistent and deeper numbing. Lidocaine Spray is more convenient with shorter wait times, but numbing may be less even. Both serve the same purpose of reducing local sensitivity. Choose based on convenience and personal preference.
It depends on preference. EMLA is a topical medication with no systemic side effects but reduces sensation. Priligy is an oral medication that doesn't reduce sensation but has systemic side effects like nausea and dizziness. Some prefer EMLA to avoid taking pills; others prefer Priligy to maintain full sensation. Consult a pharmacist to determine which is best for you.
EMLA can be used each time before intercourse. There is no strict frequency limit, but if frequent use causes skin irritation, take a break and allow the skin to recover. If you experience severe allergic reactions or irritation, stop using and consult a doctor.
