Levitra

What is Generic Levitra?

Levitra is a medication used for the treatment of erectile dysfunction (ED).
Originally developed by Bayer AG, a leading German pharmaceutical company, it remains one of the most clinically studied PDE5 inhibitors on the market.
However, with the rise of generics, patients today can access the same active substance — vardenafil hydrochloride — at a significantly lower cost.

Generic manufacturers are able to offer more affordable prices because they do not bear the high costs associated with drug discovery, clinical trials, marketing, and brand licensing. These products are therapeutically equivalent and meet the same quality and bioavailability standards required by regulatory agencies such as the FDA and EMA.

Therefore, when you buy Generic Levitra from a trusted online pharmacy, you receive the same efficacy and safety profile as the branded version, but at a much lower price.

How to Take?

Take the tablet approximately 25–60 minutes before planned sexual activity.

Swallow one pill with water without chewing. For optimal results, it is best to take it on an empty stomach or after a light meal.

Our online pharmacy offers a wide range of Generic Levitra formulations, including convenient chewable and orodispersible forms available in our catalog.

The standard film-coated tablet remains a proven and reliable option that has stood the test of time.

Like Viagra, Generic Levitra provides the desired effect for up to 4–6 hours. Duration may vary slightly depending on metabolism and other medications you take.

Always check the “Interactions” section of the product leaflet to avoid any potential drug conflicts.

Important: do not combine Levitra with nitrates such as glyceryl trinitrate (GTN), isosorbide dinitrate, or isosorbide mononitrate.

Advantages of Levitra

Clinical studies have shown that vardenafil may be particularly effective for men with diabetes mellitus and ED. According to a 2004 study led by Dr. Alan Garber at Baylor College of Medicine, Levitra demonstrated significant improvements in erectile function in diabetic patients who had not responded to sildenafil (Viagra).

Additionally, research conducted by Zamorano-León JJ, Olivier C, and de Las Heras N at Hospital Clínico San Carlos, Madrid (2013) confirmed that vardenafil significantly improved erectile performance in patients with controlled type 2 diabetes mellitus.

These findings reinforce the medication’s effectiveness and safety profile, which has been consistently recognized by global medical authorities.

Levitra Dosages – Key Guidelines

Commonly available strengths include:

• • 10 mg vardenafil
  • 20 mg vardenafil
  • 40 mg vardenafil
  • 60 mg vardenafil

Levitra 20 mg is the most widely used dosage, showing high efficacy for the majority of men. However, it is often recommended to start with a 10 mg dose to evaluate tolerance and effectiveness. If necessary, dosage can be adjusted according to individual response.

In many Canadian pharmacies, including ours, you can purchase enhanced strengths such as Generic Levitra 40 mg or 60 mg for patients who require higher potency options.
