Vardenafil

Vardenafil is a prescription treatment for erectile dysfunction (impotence) which is the generic version of the well-known ED medication Levitra. It has the same ingredients and same effectiveness as Levitra and is available in the same doses. Levitra is, however, produced by Buyer whilst Vardenafil is manufactured by multiple companies. It is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

Benefits of Vardenafil

Vardenafil is available in very low doses and is beneficial for those men who suffer from side effects when using medication for erectile dysfunction.

This medication can also help treat erectile dysfunction connected to Peyronie's disease.

Vardenafil is available as disintegrating tablets, but under the brand names Staxyn and Levitra.

Vardenafil increases the blood flow to the penis and helps to achieve and sustain a full erection. It uses the same principle as other PDE-5-inhibitors (phosphodiesterase 5) like Viagra, Cialis or Levitra, by inhibiting the release of the chemical PDE-5. PDE-5 breaks down the enzyme cGMP that widens blood vessels so that you can engage in sexual intercourse.

Complex issues can lead to cGMP being converted too early, causing a short or incomplete erection. Blocking PDE-5 keeps this process from happening at the wrong time and supports a sustained and harder erection. ED medications like Vardenafil prevent this from happening and help blood to flow freely in the penis.

The effects of Vardenafil will only work with sexual stimulation and will not provide you with an erection just by taking the pill. After ejaculation, the effect will wear off, but will work again when the man gets aroused.

Always follow the advice of your doctor when taking any medication. Your doctor can also adjust the dose if you suffer from side effects or if your prescribed dose isn’t effective.

The following is a summary:

• take one tablet 30 minutes before sexual activity
• take it with a glass of water
• do not take more than one tablet within 24 hours
• do not break it or crush tablets
• effects can last up to 5 hours
• treatment should be kept in room temperature

If you think you have taken too much of this medicine contact a poison control center or emergency room at once.

Can I take Vardenafil with food or alcohol?

Large (especially fatty) meals can reduce the effectiveness of the medication and should be avoided when possible. Similarly, alcohol can have a negative impact on the efficacy of Vardenafil, so excessive consumption of alcohol is not recommended.

Grapefruit and grapefruit juice decrease the ability of the body to process the medication, which can increase the risk of dangerous side effects.

Vardenafil is available in various dosages to adapt to the individual needs of each patient. The standard 10 mg dose is deemed as efficient in most cases and should not be increased without prior medical recommendation. The maximum daily dose is 20 mg and can be taken as one tablet if 10 mg doses have proven ineffective.

• 5mg: recommended dosage for patients older than 65 or with higher risk of side effects
• 10mg: standard dosage for most patients
• 20mg: issued for patients where the standard dose proves ineffective

Vardenafil should only be used after a consultation with a doctor as it might cause severe side effects. You need to inform the doctor of all your current and past medical conditions. You shouldn’t use Vardenafil if you:

• are allergic to any of the ingredients
• have a heart disease, heart problems, or have had a stroke, a heart attack or heart failure
• have uncontrolled high blood pressure (hypertension) or low blood pressure (hypotension)
• have angina
• have a severe liver problems
• are undergoing dialysis for your kidneys
• ­have experienced a loss of vision due to non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION)
• have a degenerative eye disease such as retinitis pigmentosa

You need to inform your doctor or healthcare provider if you have a history of blood diseases, like sickle cell anemia or leukemia.

Always remember that you can still carry sexually transmitted diseases when you suffer from impotence. You should always wear protection and get checked regularly.
