Viagra Didn’t Work for Me, Will Levitra?
Start
Short Answer: It may. Some people respond to one drug better than another, and since Levitra is said to be less affected by food or alcohol intake, that may help. However, the drugs work in a similar way in the body, so they tend to have similar levels of effectiveness.
Long Answer: If Viagra doesn’t work for you, it’s worth giving Levitra a try. Each person is different, and your body may respond better to Levitra than Viagra. However, do not take both drugs on the same day, and it’s a good idea to get a full physical to make sure something serious isn’t causing your ED.
It’s important to note that the maximum dose for Viagra is 100mg while the maximum dose of Levitra is 20mg. The two drugs do the same thing in the body, they inhibit the PDE-5 enzyme. However, Levitra is a much more targeted drug that does the job with a lower dose. So if you’ve tried 100mg of Viagra with no success, try 20mg of Levitra, but no more. Overdosing won’t make the drug any more effective.
Sometimes when Viagra doesn’t work for people, it’s due to a misunderstanding of just what is supposed to happen. Neither Viagra nor Levitra is an aphrodisiac: they will not make you want sex. They only help you get an erection when you are sexually stimulated. Also, neither drug works instantaneously they both take 15 minutes to an hour to kick in. So experimenting how and when you take either drug can help.
