Indications of Valenty 10
Vardenafil is a medication that is used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED).
Pharmaceutical Name of Valenty 10
Pharmacology
Ardenafil is a type 5 phosphodiesterase inhibitor that targets cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) (PDE5). The relaxation of smooth muscle in the corpus cavernosum and its associated arterioles initiates penile erection, which is a hemodynamic process. Nitric oxide is released in the corpus cavernosum during sexual stimulation.
Dosage & Administration
The recommended starting dose is 10 mg once a day, taken 60 minutes before sexual activity orally. Based on efficacy and side effects, the dose may be increased to a maximum of 20 mg or decreased to 5 mg. Once per day is the maximum recommended dosing frequency. Vardenafil is a medication that can be taken with or without food.
Interaction of Valenty 10
Vardenafil can enhance the effects of antihypertensive drugs by lowering blood pressure. Single doses of Vardenafil 20 mg reduced blood pressure by 7 mmHg systolic and 8 mmHg diastolic in clinical studies. When combined with other vasodilators, such as alpha blockers, caution is advised. Vardenafil has no effect on alcohol’s hypotensive effect.
Contraindications
Vardenafil should not be taken with nitrates (either regularly or intermittently) or nitric oxide donors because Vardenafil can increase the hypotensive effect of nitrates. Patients who have shown hypersensitivity to Vardenafil or any of the ingredients in this product are also advised to avoid it.
Side Effects of Valenty 10
Headache, flushing, stuffy or runny nose, indigestion, upset stomach, dizziness, or back pain are the most common side effects of Vardenafil.
Pregnancy & Lactation
Vardenafil is not recommended for females.
Precautions & Warnings
Because there is a degree of cardiac risk associated with sexual activity, physicians should consider their patients’ cardiovascular status. Vardenafil should not be used in men who are unable to engage in sexual activity due to their underlying cardiovascular condition.
