Vardenafil Tablets

What Is Vardenafil? 

Vardenafil is prescribed to treat erectile dysfunction (ED), a condition that is defined as the inability to get and maintain an erection. It is a phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitor and works by increasing the blood flow to the penis. 

Vardenafil contains the same active compound as the brand Levitra, thus offering a similar effectiveness and safety profile. It is also less expensive than the brand version.

History Of Vardenafil 

Vardenafil was initially marketed under the Levitra brand by Bayer Pharmaceuticals, GlaxoSmithKline (GSK), and Schering-Plough. In 2005, GSK returned its marketing rights for Levitra to Bayer in many countries outside the USA.

In Italy, Bayer sells vardenafil as Levitra, while GSK sells it as Vivanza. 

An orally disintegrating version of Vardenafil, known as Staxyn or Levitra Soft, has also been approved in the US and Canada [1].

Benefits of Vardenafil 

• Vardenafil starts working within 30 to 60 minutes after ingestion, allowing for spontaneous sexual activity.
• By improving erectile function, Vardenafil can help boost self-esteem and confidence in men.
• Available in various strengths, Vardenafil can be tailored to meet your specific needs. 

How Does Vardenafil Work? 

Vardenafil treats erectile dysfunction (ED) by enhancing blood flow to the penis. 

Normal Erection-

During sexual stimulation, the body releases nitric oxide in the penile tissue. This activates an enzyme called guanylate cyclase, which helps increase cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) levels. 

A high level of cGMP leads to the relaxation of smooth muscles in the blood vessels of the penis, allowing increased blood flow and resulting in an erection. 

Role of Vardenafil

PDE5 (phosphodiesterase type 5) breaks down the cGMP in some men. This affects the flow of blood to the penis and is one of the leading causes of erectile dysfunction. 

Vardenafil is a PDE5 inhibitor, which stops or restricts the action of the PDE5 enzyme. This helps in maintaining a high level of cGMP in the body, thus helping in getting a firm erection.

• Take the Vardenafil dosage 30 to 60 minutes before intercourse. 
• One should take up to one tablet in a day. 
• The sublingual tablets should be placed under the tongue, whereas the oral tablets should be swallowed with water.
