What is Spedra?


Spedra is a prescription medication used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED). It contains the active ingredient avanafil, a PDE5 inhibitor that helps men achieve and maintain an erection firm enough for sexual intercourse.

Spedra is known for its rapid onset of action, often working faster than other ED medications, making it an excellent choice for men who want flexibility and spontaneity in their sex life.

 

How Does Spedra Work?


Spedra works by relaxing the blood vessels in the penis, increasing blood flow during sexual stimulation. It blocks the enzyme phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5), which normally breaks down the chemical cGMP essential for achieving an erection. By inhibiting PDE5, Spedra helps maintain higher cGMP levels, enabling a firm and sustained erection when sexually aroused.



 

Directions

Spedra tablets should be taken orally about 15 to 30 minutes before sexual activity. The medication can be taken with or without water and is effective whether taken with food or on an empty stomach. Its effects typically last up to 6 hours, providing a generous window for intimacy.

Tips for use:

  • Can be taken with or without food
  • Take 15 to 30 minutes before sex
  • Swallow tablets whole with water
  • Do not take more than one dose in 24 hours


Dosage Options

Spedra is available in 50mg, 100mg, and 200mg tablet strengths. Most men start with 100mg, which can be adjusted up to 200mg or down to 50mg based on effectiveness and tolerance. Your healthcare provider will recommend the right dose for you.

Frequently asked questions
  • What is Spedra and how does it work?

    Spedra contains avanafil and helps men with erection difficulties by improving blood flow to the penis when sexually aroused. It is the fastest-acting ED tablet available in the UK, offering quick and reliable results. Many men choose it when they want minimal waiting time.

  • How long before sex should I take Spedra, and how long does it last?

    Spedra can start working in as little as 15 minutes and may last for around 4-6 hours. This rapid onset makes it helpful for men who prefer flexibility rather than waiting 30-60 minutes like with other ED tablets. Sexual arousal is still required. 

  • Is Spedra more effective or faster than other ED tablets?

    Spedra works at a similar effectiveness to other ED medicines but starts working much faster. Many men choose it because the rapid onset reduces the stress of timing sex. If speed is the main priority, Spedra is often the preferred option.

  • What are the common side effects of Spedra?

    Common side effects include headache, flushing, blocked nose and dizziness. These are usually short-lived. Rare symptoms such as chest pain, vision changes or a prolonged erection need urgent medical attention. If mild effects become bothersome, a prescriber can explore alternatives.

  • Who should not take Spedra?

    Spedra is unsuitable for men taking nitrates, those with severe heart or liver disease, very low blood pressure or recent stroke or heart attack. Certain eye conditions and interacting medicines also require caution. A prescriber will confirm it is safe for you.

  • How does Spedra compare with Viagra, Cialis and Levitra?

    Spedra starts working the fastest, while Viagra and Levitra take around 30-60 minutes. Cialis lasts much longer- up to 36 hours. Effectiveness is similar overall, but men often choose Spedra when speed and convenience are the main priorities.

  • Do I need a prescription for Spedra in the UK?

    Yes. All strengths of Spedra are prescription-only. A clinician will check your heart health, medical history and other medicines to confirm it is safe and suitable. Online pharmacies also require a full consultation.

  • Why do some men prefer Spedra over sildenafil?

    Many men prefer Spedra because it starts working much faster than sildenafil. The shorter waiting time helps reduce pressure around timing sex, especially for men who find sildenafil unpredictable after meals. Spedra can feel more natural for men wanting quicker responsiveness.

  • Does Spedra work well for men with diabetes or obesity?

    Spedra can work effectively for men with diabetes or obesity, although response varies from person to person. Some men find its fast onset helpful when nerve sensitivity or blood flow issues affect erections. A prescriber will check your overall health before recommending it.

  • Can Spedra help if timing tablets has been difficult?

    Yes. If you’ve found sildenafil or vardenafil difficult to time around meals or sex, Spedra’s rapid onset may suit you better. It gives a shorter wait and can reduce anxiety linked to planning intimacy.

  • Can I take Spedra with food or alcohol?

    Spedra generally works well whether taken with or without food, though a very heavy meal may slow its onset slightly. Moderate alcohol is usually fine, but heavy drinking can reduce erections and increase dizziness or low blood pressure.

  • Is Spedra suitable for older men?

    Yes. Spedra is often suitable for older men, provided their heart health, blood pressure and medicines are reviewed first. Its quick onset makes it appealing for men who want a simple, predictable option. A prescriber will assess safety before prescribing.

  • What if Spedra doesn’t work for me?

    If Spedra doesn’t help, a prescriber may review dose timing, underlying health issues or interactions with other medicines. Some men respond better to tadalafil or vardenafil, depending on personal factors. Never increase the dose yourself.

  • Is Spedra safe for long-term use?

    Yes. Spedra is considered safe for long-term use when monitored. Regular reviews ensure it remains suitable and check for changes in your health or medicines. Many men use it for years without problems.
