Production Description
This medication is an erectile dysfunction and impotence medication for men. Vardenafil is the generic name for Levitra.
This medication increases blood flow to the penis when used in conjunction with sexual stimulation. It’s an oral medication that should be given approximately an hour before sexual activity. This medication should only be used once a day, with at least 24 hours between doses. It has a five-hour duration of action.
The typical adult man’s first dose is Levitra 10mg, which serves as a baseline for determining the drug’s efficacy on an individual basis. Your prescribing doctor will either raise or reduce this medication dosage to Levitra 20mg or Levitra 5mg. The highest dosage of Levitra is 20 mg. Levitra 5mg is generally recommended to males over the age of 65 or adult men who are taking an alpha blocker.
Levitra does not have to be taken every day. As long as you wait enough time between doses, it’s an as-needed medication.
