Question 2

A male client being followed for premature ejaculation is prescribed the SSRI sertraline to be taken 4 to 8 hours prior to planned sexual intercourse.

Your explanation is based on the knowledge that sertraline is being used: a. off label primarily for its side effect of delayed ejaculation
b. to treat a masked depression to resolve his sexual performance disorder

utilitarianism

Answer to Question 2

A
SSRIs are primarily used to treat premature ejaculation due to the common side effect these medications have in delaying ejaculation. Whereas when prescribed to treat depression, such a side effect may be considered negative, it has proven beneficial in helping men who are not suffering from depression, but are suffering from premature ejaculation.
