How Does LEVITRA Work?
LEVITRA belongs to a class of drugs called “PDE5 inhibitors.” It works by increasing blood flow to the penis to improve erectile function. The active ingredient in LEVITRA works specifically on the chain of events that occurs in the penis during arousal, when two large chambers in a man’s penis fill with blood. In clinical trials, LEVITRA was shown to help men get and keep an erection that lasted long enough for successful intercourse. Taking LEVITRA • Take it about an hour before sex.
” Levitra works by blocking PDE5, the chemical that reverses an erection. When PDE5 is blocked, more of the chemicals responsible for the erection remain in the penis, so the muscles in the penis do not constrict. This allows blood to stay in the penis longer, thereby maintaining an erection. Levitra does not, however, work without stimulation.
