Table of contents:

Staxyn (generically known as vardenafil) is a prescription medication used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED) in men. Vardenafil belongs to the class of medications called phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors. It works by increasing blood flow to the penis, which can help men achieve and maintain an erection. Vardenafil medication only works in conjunction with sexual stimulation and does not heighten sexual desire.

Uses and Dosage

Staxyn (Vardenafil) is available in the form of orally disintegrating tablets and should be taken as directed by a healthcare provider. Place the tablet on the tongue, where it will dissolve with your saliva. Because this tablet is orally dissolving, you do not need to take it with water. Do not split the tablet in half. It can be taken with or without food, approximately 1 hour before sexual activity. Staxyn should not be taken more than once per day and doses should be taken at least 24 hours apart.

To minimize the risk of difficulty in getting an erection, do not consume excessive amounts of alcohol prior to sexual activity. However, moderate amounts of alcohol, typically 2 drinks for a 70kg person, are unlikely to interfere with the efficacy of Staxyn (Vardenafil).

The recommended starting dosage is usually 10 mg, taken 60 minutes before sexual activity. The dosage may be adjusted by a physician based on the patient's response to treatment and medical history. Follow the dosage instructions provided by your healthcare professional, and to never take more or less of the medication than prescribed.
