Carevitra 40 mg

How to Take Carevitra 40 mg (Vardenafil)

Dosage and Use:

• Take one tablet (40 mg) with a glass of water 25 to 60 minutes before planned sexual activity.

• Do not take more than one tablet per day.

• The typical recommended dose for most users is 20 mg, so 40 mg is considered a high dose and should only be used if prescribed or tolerated well.

• If the effect is too strong or side effects occur, the dose can be reduced.

Taking more than the recommended dose does not increase efficacy and may raise the risk of side effects.

Duration of Effect:

• Lasts 4 to 6 hours

• Sexual stimulation is required for the medication to be effective.

Food and Lifestyle Considerations:

• For best results, avoid fatty meals, alcohol, tobacco, and citrus juices before taking, as these may delay or weaken the effect.
