Filitra (which contains vardenafil, the same active ingredient as Levitra) is more effective when taken on an empty stomach because of how food especially fatty meals affects its absorption and onset of action. Why Filitra Works Better on an Empty Stomach: 1. Faster Absorption Vardenafil is absorbed more quickly into your bloodstream when your stomach is empty. This leads to a faster onset of action, typically within 30–60 minutes. 2. Higher Peak Concentration Food—especially high-fat meals—can slow down gastric emptying, which delays how quickly Filitra takes effect. A high-fat meal can reduce the peak blood concentration of the drug, making it less Filitra or slower to work. 3. More Predictable Results Taking it on an empty stomach helps avoid variability in effectiveness caused by different meal types or sizes. What to Avoid Before Taking Filitra: Heavy or fatty meals (e.g., fried foods, pizza, red meat with creamy sauces) Grapefruit or grapefruit juice (it can raise blood levels of vardenafil and increase side effect Best Practice: Take Filitra on an empty stomach or after a light, low-fat meal. Allow at least 1–2 hours after eating a heavy meal before taking it. Let me know if you’re taking other medications or have dietary restrictions—I can help tailor the timing for best results.
