How ED treatment works in your body.

Increases blood flow

Increases blood flow

When PDE5 is suppressed, blood is able to flow more freely through the body—including to the (you guessed it) penis.

Increase erections

Increase erections

More blood flow to the penis means harder, more satisfying erections once you're sexually stimulated.

Sildenafil vs Viagra: Understanding the Cost Benefits

Generic Sildenafil: Maximum Value for ED Treatment

Generic sildenafil tablets contain the identical active ingredient as branded Viagra - sildenafil citrate - but at a fraction of the cost. This PDE5 inhibitor works by increasing blood flow to the penis during sexual arousal, typically taking effect within 30-60 minutes and lasting up to 4-6 hours. The cost difference between generic and branded versions can be substantial, with generic sildenafil often costing 70-80% less than the branded alternative.

Dosage Options and Treatment Flexibility

Sildenafil tablets are available in three strengths: 25mg, 50mg, and 100mg. Most men start with a 50mg dose, which can be adjusted based on effectiveness and tolerability. The lower 25mg dose may be suitable for men who experience side effects, whilst the 100mg strength offers maximum effectiveness for those who don't respond adequately to lower doses. Only one tablet should be taken in any 24-hour period, approximately 30-60 minutes before sexual activity.

Clinical Effectiveness and Safety Profile

Studies demonstrate that generic sildenafil provides identical clinical outcomes to branded Viagra, as both contain the same active pharmaceutical ingredient in equivalent doses. The medication requires sexual stimulation to be effective and doesn't cause automatic erections. Common side effects may include headache, facial flushing, indigestion, and nasal congestion. More serious side effects are rare but can include sudden vision changes or prolonged erections lasting over four hours.

Prescription Requirements and Safety Considerations

Sildenafil is a prescription-only medicine requiring assessment by a UK-licensed prescriber. Our clinical team evaluates your cardiovascular health, current medications, and medical history to ensure safe treatment. The medication is contraindicated with nitrate medications and certain heart conditions. Important drug interactions include alpha-blockers, HIV protease inhibitors, and some antifungal medications, which may require dose adjustments.

EverydayMeds Service: Choice and Convenience

EverydayMeds provides both generic sildenafil and branded Viagra options, allowing you to choose based on personal preference and budget considerations. Our comprehensive online consultation ensures appropriate prescribing whilst maintaining complete discretion. Orders are processed by UK-registered pharmacists and delivered in plain, unmarked packaging. Both treatment options undergo the same rigorous quality standards and regulatory oversight.

What you need to know about erectile dysfunction

It's one of the most common conditions we treat, and one of the most treatable.

What is Erectile Dysfunction?
ED means finding it hard to get or keep an erection firm enough for sex. It's not unusual to have an off night; the point at which it's worth doing something is when it's happening regularly, or when it's starting to bother you.
How will I feel when I take ED medication?
For most men, nothing feels different day to day. The medication works in the background — when you're sexually aroused, it helps blood flow where it's needed, so erections come more easily and last longer. It doesn't cause arousal on its own. Some men notice mild, short-lived effects like a headache, facial flushing or a stuffy nose, which usually pass as the dose wears off.
Why do I need a prescription for ED medication?
ED treatments are prescription-only medicines in the UK because they aren't suitable for everyone — for example, alongside certain heart conditions or medications like nitrates. That's why we ask you to complete a short online consultation first. A UK-registered prescriber reviews your answers to make sure your chosen treatment is safe and right for you before it's dispensed.
