Levitra Prescription Online

Levitra - Overview

Levitra is a medication that is taken orally and is used in helping men with erectile dysfunction. Men who need a Levitra prescription can use Push Health to connect with a medical provider who can prescribe Levitra medication, including generic Levitra 20 mg tablets, when appropriate to do so.

What Is Levitra Used For?

Levitra contains the active ingredient vardenafil and belongs to a class of medications known as a cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP)-specific phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitors - similar to avanafil (Stendra), sildenafil (Viagra), and tadalafil (Cialis). Levitra is a medication taken orally that is used in treating erectile dysfunction. Levitra's mechanism of action is thought to involve increasing the amount of cGMP through the inhibition of PDE5. The effect of this activity is to relax smooth muscles in the penis and increase blood flow, making it easier to have an erection.

Levitra - Dosage and Cost

Levitra medication is expensive when paid for out of pocket, costing approximately $15 per Levitra 20 mg tablet at many pharmacies. Levitra coupons may be available online or through other sources. Some insurance plans may cover part of the costs associated with a Levitra prescription but it is not usually the case. Levitra demonstrates dose-proportional pharmacokinetics over the recommended dose range. Levitra is primarily excreted via metabolism in the liver using the CYP3A4 enzyme system. After oral administration (fasting), Levitra generally reaches peak concentrations in the plasma and in the semen within two hours. The terminal half-life of Levitra is typically under six hours. Levitra tablets are round and orange and are available as Levitra 2.5 mg tablets, Levitra 5 mg tablets, Levitra 10 mg tablets and Levitra 20 mg tablets.

Can I Buy Levitra Online?

Because Levitra requires a prescription to be dispensed by pharmacies in the United States, one cannot get Levitra OTC (over the counter). Also, because of these prescription requirements, one cannot simply buy Levitra online in the US without first consulting a medical provider. People who might need a Levitra prescription, however, can use Push Health to consult with a medical provider who can prescribe Levitra tablets, including generic Levitra 20 mg medication, when appropriate to do so.

Levitra - Side Effects

Levitra prescription medication can cause side effects when used. Questions about possible side effects and potential concerns with using Levitra should be discussed with one's medical provider and pharmacist prior to use. Side effects associated with Levitra use include headache, flushing, rhinitis and dyspepsia. Levitra medication should not be taken with nitrates or nitric oxide donors. People who have a known hypersensitivity or allergy to Levitra prescription tablets should not use the medication. Levitra tablets and alcohol should generally not be used together.
