Description
What is Levitra, and what’s in it?
How does it work?
Vardenafil is a phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitor that works by relaxing the muscles in the penis, allowing more blood to flow into it. This increased blood flow helps achieve and maintain an erection during sexual activity.
How do I take Levitra?
Take one tablet with water about 25-60 minutes before you plan to have sex. Levitra requires sexual stimulation to work. The typical starting dose is 10mg once a day, but your doctor may adjust this based on your response.
How long does it take for Levitra to start working?
Levitra typically begins working within 25-60 minutes after taking it, but sexual stimulation is necessary.
How long does Levitra last?
Levitra can be effective for about 4-5 hours.
Does food affect how it works?
Levitra can be taken with or without food, but a high-fat meal may delay its effectiveness and make it take longer to work.
Are there any risks with Levitra?
If you’re taking medications like alpha-blockers for high blood pressure, nitrates for heart issues, or other ED drugs like Viagra or Cialis, there may be risks when using Levitra.
What’s the difference between Levitra and Viagra?
