Snovitra Soft 20mg

Snovitra Soft 20mg is used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED) in men. It is available in soft chewable tablets, each containing 20 mg of Vardenafil, a phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitor. Manufactured by RSM Multilink LLP, Snovitra Soft works by increasing blood flow to the penis, assisting in achieving and maintaining an erection when sexually stimulated.

The tablet is designed to be chewed, making it a convenient alternative for those who prefer not to swallow pills. It is recommended to take it about 30 minutes before sexual activity, and its effects can last up to 6 hours. Snovitra Soft should not be taken more than once in a 24-hour period. Always follow your doctor’s instructions for safe and effective use.

How does it Work?

Snovitra Soft 20mg contains Vardenafil, a PDE5 inhibitor that helps treat erectile dysfunction. PDE5 inhibition is the mechanism by which drugs like Snovitra Soft 20mg work. PDE5 (phosphodiesterase type 5) is an enzyme that naturally breaks down a molecule called cGMP (cyclic guanosine monophosphate) in the body.

When a man is sexually aroused, the body releases nitric oxide, which increases cGMP levels. This cGMP relaxes the smooth muscles and widens blood vessels in the penis, allowing blood to flow in and create an erection. However, in men with ED, the PDE5 enzyme often breaks down cGMP too quickly, leading to insufficient blood flow and difficulty achieving or maintaining an erection.

By inhibiting PDE5, Vardenafil allows cGMP to stay active longer. This sustained presence of cGMP helps maintain blood flow to the penis during arousal, aiding in the achievement and maintenance of a firm erection.

Note that Snovitra Soft 20mg does not cause an erection on its own. It helps the body respond better to sexual arousal. Sexual stimulation is required for Snovitra to work. 

Uses

  • Erectile Dysfunction (ED):

Difficulty getting or keeping an erection firm enough to have sex. It prevents some men from having a satisfactory sexual performance.

  • Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH):

A type of high blood pressure in the arteries that carry blood to the lungs.

Recommended Dose

For ED, take one Snovitra Soft 20mg about 30 to 60 minutes before sex. Have it orally with a glass of water. Swallow it as a whole. Do not take more than the recommended dose in 24 hours. For pulmonary hypertension, take it as prescribed by your doctor.

Missed Dose

For ED, Snovitra Soft 20mg is taken as needed before sex. In that case, there is little chance of missing out on a dose. For PAH, if you forget to take a dose, take it as soon as you remember. If it is about time for your next dose, just leave out the missed dose. Then keep taking the next doses as usual.

Overdose

Snovitra Soft 20mg needs to be used at the right dosage. Only then it can produce the desired results. Taking too much ED medication can lead to serious side effects. Talk to your doctor if there is an overdose.
