ABOUT LEVITRA

VARDENAFIL HISTORY

Vardenafil owes its history to the monopolistic situation on the ED treatment market in the late 90s, when Viagra producer Pfizer was the sole company in this segment. There were no competitors in this niche and Viagra sales have rocketed sky high bringing literally billions of dollars to its creators. Other pharmaceutical companies couldn't resist from entering the competition and fighting for their share of what turned out to be a very rich and rapidly growing market.

The German company Bayer Pharmaceuticals has developed its own PDE5 inhibitor Vardenafil HCl (Levitra) that was designed to compete with Viagra on this new market. In order to attract buyers, Levitra had to offer a substantial advantage over its predecessor. Such an advantage was the fact that unlike Viagra, Levitra could be taken regardless of meals with or without food, making it easier for men to choose the time for taking the drug.

Levitra was the second drug after Viagra to get approved by the FDA, followed by Cialis. Due to this, Levitra has soon become a very successful selling drug, wining a good share of the market. Numerous generic variations have been developed since, and today you can buy cheap generic Levitra online just like the branded type.
