Many of you may be concerned that your erectile strength is declining with age.

Treatment of ED is an effective option for maintaining a good relationship with one's partner.

ED can be improved by taking therapeutic drugs, but many people are concerned about the cost and resist face-to-face treatment.

This article therefore provides a detailed explanation of the generic ED drug Levitra, vardenafil, as well as the price and purchase methods that may be of interest.

What is generic Levitra "Vardenafil"?

Vardenafil is the generic version of Levitra, a drug used to treat ED.

Generic drugs are generic drugs manufactured after the patent for the original drug has expired and are available at a lower price than the original drug, even though the active ingredients in the drug are the same.

The reason generics are less expensive than brand-name drugs is that the cost of drug research and development can be significantly reduced.

Vardenafil is a relatively new drug approved by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare in 2020, and is characterized by its immediate effect, which appears about 30 minutes after it is taken.

What is the effect of Levitra generic "Vardenafil"?

Let's take a closer look at how vardenafil works for erectile dysfunction.

To begin with, an erection is a phenomenon that occurs as a result of the influx of blood into the penile corpus cavernosum and the filling of the corpus cavernosum with blood as a result of stimulation of the central nervous system.

At this time, a type of phosphoric acid in our body called cGMP is responsible for increasing blood flow in the penis, but a type of enzyme called PDE5 breaks down cGMP and terminates the erection.

Vardenafil works by inhibiting PDE5, thereby promoting increased blood flow to the penis and supporting erection.

As mentioned in the introduction, vardenafil takes effect about 30 minutes after it is taken and lasts for 4 to 8 hours, depending on the individual.
