Avanafil, sold under the brand names Stendra and Spedra, is medication used to treat erectile dysfunction.[1] It is taken by mouth.[3] Effects generally begin within 15 minutes and last for up to 2 hours.[2]

Common side effects include headache, flushing, stuffy nose, and back pain.[1] Other side effects may include priapism, vision loss, and hearing loss.[3] It should not be used with nitrovasodilator.[1] It should also be avoided in people with significant liver or kidney problems.[3] It is a PDE5 inhibitor and works by blocking the phosphodiesterase enzyme, thus increasing levels of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP).[1]

Avanafil was approved for medical use in the United States in 2012 and Europe in 2013.[3][1] In the United Kingdom 4 pills of 100 mg costs the NHS about £14 as of 2021.[4] This amount in the United States is about 210 USD.[5]
