How to Switch Your ED Treatment with EverydayMeds
Why Consider Switching Your ED Treatment?
Many men find reasons to change their erectile dysfunction medication over time. You might be experiencing side effects with your current treatment, finding it less effective than before, or simply wanting to try a more cost-effective option. Switching between ED treatments is common and our UK-licensed prescribers can help you find the right solution for your needs.
Starting Your Online Consultation
Our streamlined online consultation process makes switching treatments straightforward. You'll complete a comprehensive medical questionnaire covering your current medication, medical history, and treatment goals. This confidential assessment allows our prescribers to determine whether Viagra or Sildenafil is suitable for your situation and whether any dosage adjustments might benefit you.
The consultation typically takes 5-10 minutes and covers important safety factors including current medications, cardiovascular health, and any contraindications. Our prescribers will review your previous ED treatment experience to recommend the most appropriate option moving forward.
Viagra vs Sildenafil: Understanding Your Options
Both Viagra and Sildenafil contain the same active ingredient - sildenafil citrate - and work identically to improve blood flow during sexual arousal. The key difference lies in branding and cost. Viagra is the original branded version manufactured by Pfizer, while Sildenafil represents the generic alternative offering the same therapeutic benefits at a lower price point.
During checkout, you can choose between Viagra tablets or Sildenafil generic, allowing flexibility based on your preferences and budget. Both options are available in 25mg, 50mg, and 100mg strengths, with most men starting on the 50mg dose before adjusting if needed.
How These Treatments Work
Sildenafil (the active ingredient in both Viagra and generic Sildenafil) belongs to a class of medications called PDE5 inhibitors. It works by blocking the enzyme phosphodiesterase type 5, which increases blood flow to the penis when you're sexually aroused. The medication doesn't cause automatic erections - sexual stimulation is still required for it to be effective.
Effects typically begin within 30-60 minutes of taking the tablet and can last 4-6 hours, giving you flexibility around intimate moments. Taking the medication with heavy or fatty meals may delay its onset, so timing your dose appropriately can optimise results.
Safety Considerations When Switching
Our prescribers carefully assess your suitability for Viagra or Sildenafil, particularly if you're switching from another ED treatment. Certain medications and medical conditions can interact dangerously with sildenafil, including nitrate medications used for chest pain, recent heart attacks or strokes, and severe liver problems.
If you're currently taking any heart medications, blood pressure treatments, or have underlying health conditions, our consultation will identify any potential interactions or contraindications. This ensures your new treatment is both safe and effective for your specific circumstances.
