Avana 100 mg Tablet

Avana 100 mg Tablet is a prescription medicine that contains 100 mg of avanafil in each tablet. It belongs to a group of medicines called phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitors. Avana 100 mg Tablet is used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED) in adult men by helping improve the ability to get and keep an erection when sexually stimulated.

How it works: Avanafil in Avana 100 mg Tablet helps relax blood vessels in the penis so more blood can flow in during sexual arousal. As a tablet, it is swallowed whole and absorbed into the body to help support an erection when stimulation occurs.

Avana 100 mg Tablet is the middle strength in this brand range, sitting between Avana 50 mg Tablet and Avana 200 mg Tablet. Doctors may choose this strength for men who need more than the lower dose but do not need the highest strength, and it may be a good fit when a balanced response is desired. Because this is a 100 mg tablet, it is a higher-strength option than the 50 mg tablet and should be used only when a clinician has assessed that it is appropriate.
