Levitra 20mg is a higher dosage of vardenafil, a medication used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED). This strength is generally prescribed for men who haven’t seen sufficient improvement with lower doses (like 10mg or 5mg). The 20mg tablet aims to provide a more potent effect, leading to improved erectile function.
How Levitra 20mg Works
Levitra 20mg increases blood flow to the penis, facilitating an erection when sexually stimulated. This happens by relaxing the blood vessels. The effect usually starts within 25-60 minutes and lasts for up to 4-5 hours. Remember, Levitra only works with sexual stimulation; it doesn’t cause spontaneous erections.
Potential Side Effects and Precautions
Common side effects include headache, flushing, nasal congestion, and indigestion. These are usually mild and temporary. More serious side effects are rare but include vision changes (blurred vision or sudden vision loss) and prolonged erection (priapism). Seek immediate medical attention if these occur. Individuals with certain heart conditions, low blood pressure, or liver/kidney problems should discuss Levitra use with their doctor before taking it. Always follow your doctor’s instructions regarding dosage and frequency.
