Why generic Levitra is so cheap
Levitra is an oral pill that is treatment for erectile
dysfunction. Erectile dysfunction is caused by an enzyme called
Phosphodiesterase type 5 or PDE5 that attacks cyclic GMP.

Cyclic GMP is a chemical that our body produces when
stimulated to increase the blood flow in the penis and trap it
there. So by inhibiting the PDE5, you are allowing the cGMP to work
– with sexual stimulation, your body can now experience erection.
Levitra was co-marketed by Bayer Pharmaceuticals and GlaxoSmithKline
but on 2005, GSK returned their rights to Bayer and sold their own
version under a different name. Today, Bayer sells Levitra for
$10-$15 per pill depending on how many pills you are willing to buy
– pretty steep for an erectile dysfunction drug. Some men may say
that they don't care how much the drug is, they are willing to pay
since it works.

Fortunately, there is a generic version of the Levitra called
Vardenafil that works exactly the same but for a fraction of the
price. It can go from $2.50-$5.50 per pill depending on the bulk of
your order. And it really works. It has the same ingredient, same
dosage and same effect. It also takes effect 30 minutes after intake
and it last for about 5 hours.
The generic Levitra even has the same side effects as the name-brand
Levitra. For some, it also causes headache, dizziness, stomachache,
flushing and nasal congestion. Not all can experience these though,
but if you do, call your doctor if the symptoms do not go away in 4
to 8 hours.
Generic does not mean cheap – it just sells for lesser money because
the company that manufactured it did not spend money on its
development and research. Aside from its name and price, everything
else is the same – no more, no less.
