Vilitra 20 mg

Vilitra 20 mg is a medication used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED), which is difficulty achieving or maintaining an erection. It contains the active ingredient Vardenafil, which helps to relax blood vessels in the penis, thereby improving blood flow and allowing firmer and longer erections. The effect of the drug occurs 25-60 minutes after taking and lasts up to 4-5 hours.

Ingredients

Active ingredient: Vardenafil (20 mg) in the form of trihydrate hydrochloride.

Excipients: crospovidone, magnesium stearate, microcrystalline cellulose, colloidal anhydrous silicon dioxide, macrogol 400, hypromellose, titanium dioxide (E171), yellow iron oxide (E172), red iron oxide (E172).

How does Vilitra work?

Erection is regulated by the balance of two chemicals in the body. If this balance is disturbed, an erection may prematurely pass away. Vilitra 20 mg reduces the effect of the PDE-5 enzyme that causes erectile flaccidity, helping to maintain an erection sufficient for satisfactory intercourse. It is effective only during sexual stimulation.

Dosage

Recommended Dose: One tablet (20 mg) taken approximately 25-60 minutes before sexual activity. The effect may last up to 4-5 hours. Do not take more than one tablet per day.

Swallow the tablet with a glass of water. Vilitra can be taken with food or fasting, but heavy and fatty meals may slow its effect.
