Before prescribing Avana 200 mg (Avanafil), a doctor may recommend several tests and assessments to ensure that the medication is safe and appropriate for you. Here are some common tests and evaluations that may be conducted:

1. Medical History Review:
   • Discuss your overall health, medical history, and any existing health conditions, especially those related to the heart, liver, kidneys, or blood pressure.
2. Physical Examination:
   • A thorough physical exam to assess your cardiovascular health and overall fitness.
3. Cardiovascular Assessment:
   • An ECG (electrocardiogram) may be performed to check your heart’s electrical activity, especially if you have a history of heart problems.
   • Blood pressure measurement to evaluate for hypertension or other cardiovascular issues.
4. Blood Tests:
   • Lipid profile to check cholesterol levels, which can indicate heart health.
   • Blood glucose levels to screen for diabetes, as it can contribute to erectile dysfunction.
5. Liver Function Tests:
   • Assess liver health since Avana 200mg is metabolized in the liver, and liver issues may affect drug processing.
6. Kidney Function Tests:
   • Blood tests such as creatinine and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) to evaluate kidney health, as kidney function may influence how the drug is excreted.
7. Hormone Levels:
   • Testing for testosterone levels if hormonal imbalances are suspected as a cause of erectile dysfunction.
8. Psychological Evaluation:
   • If psychological factors are suspected contributors to erectile dysfunction, a mental health assessment may be recommended.
9. Urinalysis:
   • A urine test to check for any underlying urinary tract infections or other issues that might affect sexual health.
10. Specialist Referral:
    • If necessary, your doctor might refer you to a urologist or endocrinologist for further evaluation.
