Understanding Your Viagra Treatment Options
Prescription vs Over-the-Counter Options
Whilst Viagra Connect (50mg sildenafil) is available over the counter from pharmacies, prescription Viagra offers several advantages. Doctor-prescribed treatment provides access to the full range of dosages (25mg, 50mg, and 100mg), allowing for personalised treatment based on your individual response and medical history. Our UK-licensed prescribers can assess your cardiovascular health, review potential drug interactions, and determine the most appropriate starting dose for your circumstances.
Branded Viagra vs Generic Sildenafil
At checkout, EverydayMeds offers both branded Viagra and generic sildenafil options. Both contain the same active ingredient (sildenafil citrate) and work identically in your body. The primary difference lies in cost - generic sildenafil typically offers significant savings whilst maintaining the same clinical effectiveness. Many patients find generic sildenafil provides excellent value without compromising on treatment quality.
How Viagra Works for Erectile Dysfunction
Viagra belongs to a class of medications called PDE5 inhibitors. It works by blocking the phosphodiesterase type 5 enzyme, which increases blood flow to the penis during sexual arousal. It's important to understand that Viagra doesn't cause automatic erections - sexual stimulation is still required. The medication typically begins working within 30-60 minutes of taking and its effects can last 4-6 hours, though this doesn't mean erections last this duration.
Determining Your Appropriate Dosage
Most men start with a 50mg dose, which can be adjusted based on effectiveness and any side effects experienced. Some patients may benefit from reducing to 25mg if they experience unwanted effects, whilst others might require 100mg for optimal results. Our prescribers evaluate your medical history, current medications, and individual circumstances to recommend the most suitable starting dose. Remember, only one dose should be taken within any 24-hour period.
Safety Considerations and Medical Assessment
Viagra isn't suitable for everyone, which is why proper medical assessment is crucial. Men taking nitrate medications (such as GTN spray for angina) cannot safely use Viagra due to dangerous blood pressure interactions. Those with severe heart disease, recent stroke or heart attack, or severe liver problems may also be unsuitable candidates. Our clinical assessment process evaluates these factors to ensure treatment safety.
