Complete Sildenafil Treatment Requirements Guide
Dosage and Administration Guidelines
Sildenafil tablets are available in 25mg, 50mg, and 100mg strengths. Most patients begin with 50mg taken approximately one hour before sexual activity. Your prescriber may adjust this to 25mg if you experience side effects, or increase to 100mg if the initial dose proves insufficient. Remember that sexual stimulation is still required - sildenafil enhances natural erectile function rather than creating automatic erections.
Eligibility and Assessment Process
All patients require a clinical assessment by a UK-licensed prescriber before receiving sildenafil tablets. This evaluation examines your cardiovascular health, current medications, and medical history to ensure safe treatment. Men aged 18 and over with erectile dysfunction may be suitable candidates, provided they meet specific health criteria and have no contraindications.
Critical Safety Contraindications
Never take sildenafil if you use nitrate medications such as GTN spray or isosorbide, as this combination can cause dangerous blood pressure drops. Other contraindications include severe heart disease, recent heart attack or stroke within six months, severe liver impairment, very low blood pressure, or allergies to sildenafil. Always disclose your complete medical history during consultation.
Important Drug Interactions
Beyond nitrates, sildenafil may interact with alpha-blockers used for prostate problems or high blood pressure, potentially causing dizziness or fainting. HIV protease inhibitors and certain antifungal medications can increase sildenafil levels in your blood. Blood pressure medications may have enhanced effects when combined with sildenafil. Always inform your prescriber about all medications and supplements you take.
Branded Viagra vs Generic Sildenafil Options
EverydayMeds offers both branded Viagra and generic sildenafil tablets, allowing you to choose your preferred option at checkout. Both contain identical active ingredients and work equally effectively for erectile dysfunction treatment. Generic sildenafil typically costs less whilst providing the same therapeutic benefits as the branded Viagra tablets.
