Vardenafil treats erectile dysfunction by increasing blood flow to the penis. It works best when taken 25-60 minutes before sexual activity.
Available in various dosages (5mg, 10mg, 20mg), your doctor will determine the appropriate dose based on your individual needs and health status. Start with the lowest effective dose to minimize potential side effects.
Common side effects include headache, flushing, nasal congestion, and indigestion. These are usually mild and temporary. Severe side effects are rare but require immediate medical attention.
Alcohol and grapefruit juice can interact negatively with vardenafil, potentially increasing side effects or reducing its effectiveness. Avoid these during treatment.
Certain medical conditions, such as heart problems or low blood pressure, can influence the suitability of vardenafil. Always discuss your complete medical history with your doctor before starting treatment.
Vardenafil isn’t a permanent solution and shouldn’t be taken daily unless prescribed by a physician. Maintain open communication with your doctor regarding your progress and any concerns.
Regular exercise, a balanced diet, and stress management can contribute positively to overall sexual health. These lifestyle changes may complement vardenafil therapy.
If you experience any unexpected or concerning symptoms, contact your doctor immediately. They can provide personalized guidance and address any questions you have about vardenafil.
