Understanding Levitra: Uses, Side Effects, and Precautions

Levitra treats erectile dysfunction (ED) by increasing blood flow to the penis. This allows for firmer erections sufficient for sexual intercourse.

Uses

Consult your doctor before using Levitra. It’s prescribed for men with ED, enabling them to achieve and maintain an erection during sexual stimulation. The medication doesn’t cause erections without sexual stimulation.

Side Effects

Common side effects include headache, flushing, nasal congestion, and indigestion. More serious, though rare, side effects include vision changes (blurred vision, sudden vision loss) and hearing loss. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience these.

Precautions

Avoid Levitra if you have heart problems, uncontrolled high blood pressure, or liver or kidney disease. Do not combine it with nitrates (found in some heart medications). Inform your doctor about all medications you’re taking, including over-the-counter drugs and supplements. Alcohol can amplify side effects. Levitra is not suitable for everyone, and a consultation with a healthcare professional is always recommended before use.

Dosage

Your doctor will determine the appropriate dosage based on your individual needs and health status. Follow their instructions carefully. Never exceed the recommended dose.
