Study Confirms That Levitra® On Demand Is Effective In Patients With ED After Nerve-sparing Prostatectomy

July 27th, 2008 Posted in prostatectomy

A study published in the European Urology journal demonstrated that Levitra® (vardenafil, HCI) is highly efficacious in men with erectile dysfunction (ED) even shortly after radical nerve-sparing prostatectomy. This landmark study conducted by Bayer Schering Pharma was a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled multicentre study, the largest of its kind until. It investigated the tolerability and efficacy of Levitra taken once nightly as a prophylactic treatment versus Levitra PRN taken on demand (i.e. when needed) versus placebo after a bilateral, nerve-sparing, radical retropubic prostatectomy (BNSRRP).
