Overview

Levitra (vardenafil) is a prescription medication used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED) in men. It belongs to a class of drugs called phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitors. Levitra works by increasing blood flow to the penis during sexual stimulation, helping men achieve and maintain an erection suitable for intercourse.

How Levitra Works

The active ingredient in Levitra, vardenafil, blocks the action of PDE5, an enzyme that breaks down a substance called cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP). cGMP helps relax the smooth muscles in the penis and increase blood flow into the spongy erectile tissue, resulting in an erection. By inhibiting PDE5, Levitra prolongs the action of cGMP and improves erectile function.

Levitra Dosage

Levitra tablets are available in three dosage strengths:

  • 5 mg
  • 10 mg
  • 20 mg

The recommended starting dose is 10 mg, taken orally about 60 minutes before sexual activity. Based on effectiveness and tolerability, the dose may be increased to 20 mg or decreased to 5 mg. The maximum recommended dosing frequency is once per day. Men should take the lowest dose that provides benefit.

Efficacy of Levitra

Clinical studies have shown Levitra to be effective for many men with ED:

Placebo 28-30%
5 mg 66%
10 mg 76%
20 mg 80%

Precautions and Side Effects

Before taking Levitra, men should tell their doctor about all their medical conditions and medications. Levitra can cause side effects such as headache, flushing, nasal congestion, and indigestion. More serious but rare side effects include sudden vision loss and hearing decrease. Men taking nitrate drugs for chest pain should not take Levitra.

In summary, Levitra is an effective, well-tolerated oral medication for many men with erectile dysfunction when used as directed under the supervision of a doctor. By selectively inhibiting PDE5, Levitra enhances penile blood flow and improves erectile function, while having a low incidence of adverse effects. As with any prescription drug, the benefits and risks of Levitra should be discussed with a healthcare provider.
