Vardenafil, the generic version of Levitra, is a drug used to help increase the flow of blood to the penis in men who have difficulty getting, or maintaining an erection, following sexual arousal.
Take one Vardenafil tablet 30-60 minutes prior to sexual activity. You should never consume more than one Vardenafil tablet within a 24-hour period. Taking this medication on an empty stomach, or a low-fat meal increases the effectiveness of Vardenafil. Alcohol should be avoided when taking Vardenafil, as this can reduce its effectiveness.
Do not combine Vardenafil with other erectile dysfunction medication.
Dosage
The recommended dose of Vardenafil tablets is 10mg at least 30-60 minutes before sexual activity. The dose can be adjusted according to response, with a maximum dose of 20mg in a 24-hour period.
Patients taking medications for high blood pressure such as doxazosin should use a reduced dose of Vardenafil 5mg 30-60 minutes before sexual activity.
