What is a Generic Drug?
A generic drug is essentially a replica of the brand-name drug, sharing the same dosage, safety profile, strength, quality, method of consumption, performance, and intended use. Before any generic version is permitted on the market, the manufacturing company must demonstrate that it contains the same active ingredients as the original brand-name drug and acts in the same manner and timeframe in the body.
The primary distinctions between generic drugs and their brand-name equivalents lie in their price point and, sometimes, their appearance (for instance, they may differ in shape or color). Trademark laws prevent a generic drug from replicating the look of the brand-name version precisely.
Generic drugs are more affordable because their manufacturers do not incur the substantial costs associated with the initial development of a medication. Once the patent for a brand-name drug expires, generic companies can produce their version and market it at a significantly reduced price.
Description
Your healthcare provider may prescribe Levitra to address erectile dysfunction (ED). This condition can stem from a variety of underlying factors; however, the symptoms generally present similarly. Individuals with ED may experience difficulties in achieving or maintaining an erection during sexual activity.
Levitra operates by relaxing the blood vessels within the penis, enhancing blood flow in response to sexual stimulation. It is essential for users to engage in sexual arousal for the medication to be effective.
Directions
It is crucial to take Levitra precisely as directed by your physician. The medication can be consumed with or without food approximately one hour before engaging in sexual activity.
The initial prescribed dose is generally 10 mg taken orally, and based on your doctor's guidance, this can be adjusted to an increase of 20 mg or a decrease to 5 mg according to individual response and tolerance.
Ingredients
The active substance in Levitra is Vardenafil. At this time, there is no generic version of Levitra available on the market.
