HOW TO USE: Levitra is taken orally when needed between 4.30 hrs and 30
minutes before sexual activity. Take Levitra only as directed, usually once
daily as needed. Levitra works along with sexual stimulation to help achieve an
erection.
SIDE EFFECTS: Headache, flushing , upset stomach, stuffy nose, urinary
tract infection, visual changes such as mild and temporary changes in
blue/green colors or increased sensitivity to light, and diarrhea.
PRECAUTIONS : One should have a complete medical history and exam to
determine the cause of his impotence before taking Levitra. Men who have
medical conditions that may cause a sustained erection such as sickle cell
anemia, leukemia or multiple myeloma or who have an abnormally shaped penis may
not be able to take Levitra. There are several medications that are known to
interact with Levitra, so be sure to tell your doctor about all medications you
are taking including those you can get without a prescription. Levitra has not
been studied with other treatments for impotence, so use in combination with
other treatments is not recommended. Limit alcohol intake, as it may aggravate
SIDE EFFECTS of Levitra. To avoid dizziness and lightheadedness when rising
from a seated or lying position, get up slowly. The elderly may be more
sensitive to the SIDE EFFECTS of Levitra; therefore, caution is advised in this
group.
DRUG INTERACTIONS: Before taking Levitra consult your doctor about all
nonprescription and prescription medication you may use, especially any nitrate
medications (e.g., nitroglycerin, isosorbide dinitrate), nitroprusside (any
"nitric oxide donor" medicines), cimetidine, erythromycin, azole
antifungals (e.g., itraconazole, ketoconazole), mibefradil, rifamycins (e.g.,
rifampin) or high blood pressure medicines.
STORAGE : Store Levitra at room temperature between 59 and 86 degrees F
