The drugs listed in the subheading are a fast-dissolving form of vardenafil. The so-called orally dispersible tablets are different from conventional Levitra tablets. They instantly dissolve on your tongue. Never take rapidly disintegrating tablets with juice or water. Especially avoid grapefruit, its juice interferes with the normal action of the medicine.
