Brand levitra?

Levitra is a brand name for the medication sildenafil citrate, which is a PDE5 inhibitor used to treat erectile dysfunction. It’s the same active drug as Viagra (another brand name for sildenafil).

Quick facts:
- Common tablet strengths: typically 5, 10, or 20 mg.
- Usual starting dose: 10 mg about 30–60 minutes before sexual activity; can be adjusted to 5 mg or 20 mg depending on response and tolerability (max 20 mg).
- Take with water; high-fat meals can delay the onset.
- Effects can last about 4–5 hours.

Important cautions:
- Do not take if you’re also taking nitrates (for chest pain) or certain nitrate-containing medicines; this can cause a dangerous drop in blood pressure.
- Be cautious with certain other medicines (some antibiotics/antivirals, HIV protease inhibitors, certain antifungals) and with alpha-blockers; consult a clinician for dosing changes.
- Common side effects: headache, flushing, nasal congestion, indigestion, dizziness.
- Rare but serious: sudden vision or hearing loss, or an erection lasting more than 4 hours (priapism).

Levitra is prescription-only in many countries, and a generic sildenafil product is available in many markets as well.
