Sildenafil vs Spedra vs Levitra - What’s the Difference?
Erectile Dysfunction is a common problem among men. Whilst still a taboo subject, it is important to consult a qualified medical provider about your concerns. ED can be caused by underlying medical conditions. Once you have consulted with your doctor, then you may consider some erectile dysfunction medications such as Sildenafil, Levitra or Spedra Tablets. When choosing an online retailer for erectile dysfunction medication in the UK be sure it is the safest way and buy your erectile dysfunction treatment from a reputable pharmacist like Pharmacy Planet.
What are Sildenafil, Spedra, and Levitra?
All three ED medicines are PDE5 inhibitors, which means they help to relax the muscles and increase blood flow to the body, and in turn, the penis.
- Sildenafil is also known as Viagra
- Levitra is also known as Vardenafil
- Spedra is also known as Avanafil
All three of these medications can have similar side effects such as headache, low blood pressure or persistent erection that does not relieve itself. There are similar warnings for all three regarding pre-existing conditions like heart issues, penile deformations, and kidney/liver problems.
Sildenafil (Viagra) is perhaps the best-known medication for ED in the world, having been available since 1998. Vardenafil (Levitra) was approved in the early 2000’s and Spedra (Avanafil) is newest to the market as of 2012. Whilst all of the erectile dysfunction medications offer effectiveness, Spedra tablets advantageously are new to the market and therefore have some improvements you may be interested in, such as a reduced period of time for efficacy.
What’s the difference?
Whilst these ED tablets can appear quite similar, there are some key differences to be aware of when choosing your erectile dysfunction medication. As you can see by the table below, Spedra would be your choice in the event that time is a factor for you.
