Filitra is an effective treatment for erectile dysfunction (ED), but it is not typically considered a long-lasting treatment. The active ingredient in Filitra is vardenafil, a PDE5 inhibitor similar to sildenafil (Viagra). Vardenafil works by increasing blood flow to the penis during sexual stimulation, allowing men to achieve and maintain an erection.

The effects of Filitra generally last for 4 to 6 hours, which means it provides a temporary solution for sexual performance during that period. This duration is similar to other ED medications like Viagra, but it is not as long-lasting as tadalafil, the active ingredient in medications like Cialis, which can last up to 36 hours.

Filitra should be taken about 30 to 60 minutes before sexual activity to ensure it works effectively. While it helps improve erectile function during the time it is active in the body, it does not provide a permanent solution to ED. To address ongoing sexual performance issues, Filitra should be used as needed, and a healthcare provider may recommend other treatments or lifestyle changes for long-term management of ED.

For men seeking a more extended duration of action, medications like tadalafil might be a better option, as they offer longer-lasting results. Always consult a healthcare provider before starting any ED treatment.
