Vardenafil 80 mg: Ultra-high dose for maximum economy
Vardenafil 80 mg (or generics like Vilitra 80) is a medication containing 80 mg of Vardenafil. This dosage is four timesthe maximum standard dose (20 mg). It is crucial to understand that Vardenafil 80 mg is categorically not intended for a single intake. The primary purpose of Vardenafil 80 mg is to provide patients with an economical way to obtain multiple standard doses (20 mg) or starting doses (10 mg) by splitting the tablet.
What is Vardenafil 80 mg?
Vardenafil 80 mg is a generic containing 80 mg of Vardenafil. Vardenafil is a PDE5 inhibitor (the active ingredient in Levitra), known for its high selectivity and efficacy.
1. Indication and dosage warning
It must be strictly understood: the standard maximum daily dose of Vardenafil approved by regulatory bodies is 20 mg. The 80 mg dosage offered by this drug quadruples this standard.
This medication should never be used for taking a whole tablet at once. It is intended for:
-
Economy: Splitting the 80 mg tablet into 4 parts (20 mg each) or 8 parts (10 mg each) significantly reduces the cost of treatment.
-
Severe ED: In very rare, resistant cases, a doctor might prescribe a higher dose, but 80 mg at once is an extremely high load on the body.
Detailed mechanism of action of Vardenafil
The mechanism of action of Vardenafil 80 mg is based on Vardenafil being a potent and selective inhibitor of the PDE5 enzyme.
-
Trigger: Sexual arousal causes the release of nitric oxide (NO).
-
Erectile Cycle: NO stimulates the formation of cyclic GMP (cGMP), which relaxes the smooth muscles of the penile blood vessels, ensuring blood flow.
-
PDE5 Blockade: Vardenafil blocks the PDE5 enzyme that degrades cGMP. Blocking this enzyme allows cGMP to persist longer, ensuring a stable erection.
Key takeaway: Vardenafil 80 mg provides a "window" of readiness (4-6 hours), but sexual arousal is always required to achieve an erection.
Instructions for using Vardenafil 80 mg: Safety rules
Taking a dose as high as 80 mg requires extreme caution and monitoring.
1. Dosing recommendations
-
Initial Use: It is strictly forbidden to start treatment with a whole 80 mg tablet. Always start with 1/8 of a tablet (10 mg) or 1/4 of a tablet (20 mg).
-
Standard Maximum Dose: 1/4 of a tablet (20 mg).
-
Maximum Daily Dose: Do not take more than 20 mg (1/4 of a tablet) within 24 hours.

-
Timing: Take 30–60 minutes before planned sexual activity.
2. Interaction with food and alcohol
-
Food: Vardenafil 80 mg can be taken regardless of food.
-
Alcohol: Combining 80 mg of Vardenafil and alcohol is not recommended, as it can increase the risk of dropping blood pressure and dizziness.
Critical contraindications
Due to the increased dosage, the risks of interaction are heightened.
-
Interaction with Nitrates: Absolutely forbidden! Taking Vardenafil 80 mg with any form of nitrates or nitric oxide donors (e.g., Nitroglycerin) causes a life-threatening drop in blood pressure.
-
Severe Cardiovascular Diseases: Recent heart attack or stroke (within 6 months), unstable angina, severe heart failure.
-
Blood Pressure: Persistent hypotension (pressure < 90/50 mmHg) or uncontrolled hypertension.
-
Liver and Kidneys: Severe hepatic or renal failure.
Side effects of Vardenafil 80 mg: Increased Risk
At an 80 mg dosage (if the whole tablet is taken), the probability and intensity of side effects increase manifold.
-
Very Common: Severe headache, pronounced facial flushing, nasal congestion.
-
Common: Dizziness, dyspepsia (indigestion), back pain.
-
Increased Risk of Serious Effects: Priapism (painful erection lasting longer than 4 hours), sudden loss of vision or hearing, severe hypotension.
Professional advice on using
-
Splitting is the key to safety and economy: Vardenafil 80 mg is ideal for splitting. By dividing it into four parts, you get four maximum standard doses of 20 mg. This gives maximum efficacy with lower risk.
-
Do not chase the dose: If 20 mg of Vardenafil provides a sufficient effect, switching to 40 mg or 80 mg will not increase the duration of the erection (it remains 4–6 hours), but will sharply increase the risk of adverse reactions.
