What is avanafil?
Avanafil, the generic for Stendra (US) and Spedra (UK and AU), is a prescription-only medicine used to address male sexual dysfunction known as erectile dysfunction. This medication should be used only with proper consultation from a doctor.
How does avanafil work?
Avanafil is a PDE5 inhibitor. It helps maintain erectile function by sustaining levels of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) in penile tissue [1]. It results in prolonged smooth muscle relaxation, increased blood flow, and the maintenance of an erection during sexual stimulation. Its rapid onset and targeted action make it a valuable option for men seeking treatment for erectile dysfunction.
Avanafil does not work
- Against sexually transmitted infections (STIs)
- In preventing pregnancy
What is avanafil used for?
Avanafil is used as a treatment for adult men with erectile dysfunction. Erectile dysfunction is a health condition in which the penis does not harden and expand when a man is sexually aroused, or is unable to keep an erection.
Avanafil is used to support increased blood flow within the penis when appropriate stimulation occurs.
How quickly does avanafil work and how long does it last?
It usually starts working within 15 to 30 minutes after taking it; however, the onset may vary between individuals. It works only when sexual stimulation is present. Avanafil works best on an empty stomach, while a high-fat meal may delay the effect [2].
Avanafil usually lasts up to 6 hours, although duration may vary by individual. This does not mean a man should have a continuous erection if used for erectile dysfunction. Follow the prescribed dosage, and do not take more than the recommended amount within 24 hours.

Dosage information
The recommended starting dose is 100mg. It is usually taken about 15 minutes before sexual activity [3].
Depending upon the individual's efficacy and tolerability, your doctor may increase the dose to 200 mg taken about 15 minutes before sexual activity, or decrease to 50mg taken about 30 minutes before sexual activity.
The maximum recommended dosage frequency is once per day. Follow the directions on your prescription label, and ask your doctor to explain anything you do not understand.
