How to Switch to Viagra or Sildenafil Online
Start Your Online Consultation Today
Switching to Viagra or sildenafil through EverydayMeds is straightforward. Begin by completing our confidential medical questionnaire, which takes just 2-3 minutes. Our UK-licensed prescribers will review your medical history, current medications, and treatment goals to determine if sildenafil-based treatments are suitable for you.
Choose Between Branded and Generic Options
At checkout, you can select between branded Viagra and generic sildenafil - both contain the same active ingredient (sildenafil citrate) and work identically. The main difference is cost, with generic sildenafil offering significant savings whilst maintaining the same effectiveness and safety profile as the branded version.
Both options are available in 25mg, 50mg, and 100mg strengths. Most men start with 50mg, taken 30-60 minutes before sexual activity. Your prescriber may adjust this based on how well the treatment works and any side effects you experience.
Understanding How Sildenafil Works
Sildenafil belongs to a class of medicines called PDE5 inhibitors. It works by increasing blood flow to the penis when you're sexually aroused. The medication doesn't cause automatic erections - sexual stimulation is still required. Effects typically begin within 30-60 minutes and can last 4-6 hours, though this doesn't mean an erection lasts this entire time.
For optimal results, avoid large or fatty meals before taking sildenafil, as food can delay how quickly the medication starts working. The treatment is taken as needed, with a maximum of one dose per 24-hour period.
Safety Considerations When Switching
Before switching to sildenafil-based treatments, it's essential to inform our prescribers about all medications you're currently taking. Sildenafil can interact dangerously with certain medicines, particularly nitrates used for chest pain (such as GTN spray or isosorbide tablets). This combination can cause a severe drop in blood pressure.
The medication may not be suitable if you have certain heart conditions, severe liver problems, very low blood pressure, or have had a recent heart attack or stroke. Our consultation process will identify any contraindications to ensure your safety.
What to Expect When Switching
If you're currently using a different ED treatment, your prescriber will guide you through the switching process safely. There's typically no need for a washout period when changing to sildenafil from other ED medications, but specific guidance will be provided based on your current treatment.
Common side effects may include headaches, facial flushing, indigestion, or nasal congestion. These are usually mild and temporary. Serious side effects are rare but require immediate medical attention, including prolonged erections lasting over 4 hours or sudden vision/hearing changes.
