Generic Levitra

What is generic Levitra?

Levitra is the brand-name of the pharmaceutical drug that contains Vardenafil.

Levitra was approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2003 and has been developed by the pharmaceutical giant Bayer and since the brand name can be legally used only by Bayer, every other product that contains Vardenafil is referred to as generic Levitra.

How does generic Levitra work?

Generic Levitra is a phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE-5) inhibitor, just like Viagra and Cialis.

All the PDE-5 inhibitors work by manipulating the levels of the PDE-5 enzyme, which leads to the production of cGMP (cyclic guanosine monophosphate) – the chemical that is responsible for the relaxation of the smooth muscles in the penile arteries.

Once these muscles relax more blood flows to the penis which eases the achievement of an erection.

The PDE-5 inhibitors are probably the most natural impotence treatment as far as the results are concerned – an erection is only achieved only after sexual arousal.

How to take generic Levitra?

Since both generic Levitra and the Brand-name drug contain Vardenafil they are taken in exactly the same way.

Generic Levitra is an oral medication – the drug is taken orally as needed, about an hour before the sexual activity and only one tablet should be taken daily.

Each tablet should be taken with a full glass of water; generic Levitra can be taken before or after meals since its effect is not impaired by the food.

What are the generic Levitra possible side effects?

It should be noted that the vast majority of men that have taken the drug have not experienced any adverse side effects; only about 3% of the generic Levitra users have ceased the treatment due to various complications.

In most cases the possible side effects are minor and should quickly pass; these might be:

• facial flashing
• headache
• indigestion or stomach ache
• back pain
• sinusitis
• nausea
• dizziness
• rhinitis (stuffy nose).

None of these symptoms require treatment; however, if they persist medical attention should be sought.

In rare cases more severe side effects have been reported such as:

• heart attacks
• stroke
• high blood pressure
• bleeding.

The direct link between these serious conditions and generic Levitra have never been clinically proven since most of these men had either prior heart conditions or existing risk factors.

What precautions should be taken while taking Levitra?

Men with history of recent heart attacks, strokes, or significant heart disease risk factors should avoid using generic Levitra or any of the other PDE-5 inhibitors.

If after taking the drug or during the sexual activity some of the side effects are experienced the treatment might have to be cancelled or at least medical attention should be sought.

Unfortunately it is impossible to determine if a man will experience some side effects when taking generic Levitra, but reveal your medical history and problems to your health provider so he can make a better judgment and advise you on the best impotence treatment.

Generic Levitra interacts with other medications, which is why it is important to inform your doctor about all other synthetic drugs or herbal supplements that you are currently taking; generic Levitra should not be used in conjunction with other impotence drugs, drugs for heart and chest pain like isosorbide mononitrate, nitroglycerin, amyl nitrite and isosorbide dinitrate.

Other medications that interact with Vardenafil are the different alpha blockers, bosentan, arsenic trioxide, HIV infection or AIDS medicines, chloroquine, cisapride, methadone, pentamidine and pimozide.

Avoid the consumption of alcohol while taking generic Levitra since it might increase the intensity of some of the side effects, also talk to your healthcare provider about the consumption of grapefruit juice – it is believed that it interacts with all PDE-5 inhibitors.

What are the main advantages of the generic Levitra over the brand-name drug?

Many men are concerned about purchasing generic drugs since they think that they are some sort of a cheap imitation.

This is untrue! The generic drugs are subject to the same strict regulations and must meet the same high standards as all other synthetic drugs in order to ensure the public safety.

They are in essence the same pill as the brand-name drug, only sold under different name and in all cases they are much cheaper, in some instances they cost 90% less than what you would pay for the designer drug.

It should be noted that in many instances the generic drugs are developed, marketed and distributed by the very same company that has developed the brand-name drug.
