Avanafil

Other names: Stendra

Categories: Prescription Medication

Description:

Avanafil (brand name Stendra) is a newer PDE-5 inhibitor approved for treating erectile dysfunction (ED). Like the others in its class, it enhances blood flow to the penis during sexual stimulation. Its main advantage is rapid onset—it can start working in as little as 15 minutes, and its effects last about 4–6 hours. Because of its faster action and fewer interactions with food and alcohol, some men find it more convenient. Side effects are generally mild and include headache, flushing, nasal congestion, and dizziness, but, like other PDE-5 inhibitors, it should not be taken with nitrates due to the risk of dangerous drops in blood pressure.

Its effects last about 4–6 hours, and it has fewer interactions with food and alcohol than older agents. It may be prescribed for men who value rapid, on-demand use or who did not tolerate other PDE-5 inhibitors well.
