What is Levitra?
Levitra (Vardenafil is a prescription drug used for the treatment of erectile dysfunction (ED), a condition that is also addressed by drugs such as sildenafil (Viagra) and tadalafil (Cialis). The efficacy of vardenafil, sildenafil, and tadalafil all depend on their ability to inhibit the enzyme phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE-5), which plays a key role in regulating blood flow to and from the penis.
How is Levitra taken?
Levitra is available in oral
tablets containing 2.5, 5, 10, or 20 mg of active drug. The recommended starting
dose is 10 mg, taken one hour before sexual activity. Thereafter, the dose may
be increased to a maximum of 20 mg or decreased to 5 mg based on effectiveness
and tolerability. The maximum recommended dosing frequency is once per day.
How does Levitra work?
During sexual stimulation, nitric
oxide is released from nerve endings and endothelial cells in the corpus
cavernosum. Nitric oxide activates an enzyme called guanylate cyclase resulting
in increased synthesis of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) in the smooth
muscle cells of the corpus cavernosum. The increased cGMP triggers smooth muscle
relaxation, allowing increased blood flow into the penis, resulting in erection.
How quickly does Levitra work?
Levitra is rapidly absorbed with
peak circulating levels achieved between 30 minutes and 2 hours after taking.
