There are clearly some misconceptions and false information floating around peoples minds and in dark corners of internet blogs and forums. We would like to help clear up some of the most common ones, but your doctor should be the one with the final say.
Myth: Levitra helps a man become sexually stimulated or aroused when used.
Truth: A levitra prescription helps with an erection, but not sexual stimulation or arousal. That must come from elsewhere.
Myth: Immediately after taking Levitra pills, a man will obtain an instant erection.
Truth: The length of time after taking Levitra, sexual arousal, and then obtaining an erection varies from patient to patient. On average after the previous conditions are met, it takes 16 to 60 minutes to obtain an erection.
Myth: I can take Levitra once for sexual intercourse several times.
Truth: Levitra will help maintain an erection once per dose and lasts for one successful session of sexual intercourse.
Myth: Levitra can be taken by women also.
Truth: Absolutely false. The medication Levitra is intended only for men and prescribed only for men.
Myth: When using Levitra your partner cannot become pregnant or with child.
Truth: No, no and no! Any dosage of Levitra does not in any way or form serve as birth control.
Myth: Sexually transmitted diseases or STD's cannot be passed on while using Levitra.
Truth: Absolutely not. Levitra helps with erectily dysfunction only and will not prevent or treat any STD's.
Myth: When using Levitra, it may be taken with any kind of other drugs or alcohol successfully.
Truth: Alcohol should be avoided when taking Levitra and nitrates can be very dangerous when interacting with the chemicals from this medication. Always let
your doctor know of any medications you are taking when obtaining a prescription.
Myth: Levitra is better than Viagra or Cialis, other drugs used to treat erectile dysfunction.
Truth: This is a little more complicated as your mileage may vary depending on your body. Each medication has it's own mechanisms, side effects, and may differ in how it works in your unique body. The best bet is, you got it, your doctor!
Myth: Levitra is best taken on an empty stomach.
Truth: Levitra can be taken with food and per the directions of your doctor. Again we would like to reiterate that your medical professional, not some Web site (even this one) should be used for final advice. Hence the disclaimer below.
