Vardenafil - Dosage and How to Use

How should Vardenafil be used?

  • ​It usually starts to work  within 1 hour and effective up to 4 hours before sexual activity.
  • For film coated tablet, the medication may be taken with or without food. However, you may find that this medicine takes longer to start working if you take it with a high-fat meal (such as cheeseburger and french fries)
  • For orodispersible tablet, the medication is best taken on an empty stomach. With dry hands, place the tablet on the tongue, where it will rapidly disintegrate, and then swallow. Tablet will dissolve within seconds, do not take with liquid. It should not be removed from the blister pack until administered.

What should I do if I miss a dose?

  • ​Take this medication on an as-needed basis.
  • Do not take more than once a day.
  • Do not take more than the dose prescribed to you.
