How to Switch Your ED Treatment with EverydayMeds
Complete Your Online Consultation in Minutes
Switching your erectile dysfunction prescription starts with our comprehensive online consultation. Our UK-licensed prescribers will review your current treatment, medical history, and any medications you're taking to ensure sildenafil is suitable for you. The consultation covers important safety checks, including cardiovascular health and potential drug interactions, particularly with nitrates which can cause dangerous drops in blood pressure when combined with sildenafil.
BNF Sildenafil Guidelines and Dosing Options
According to British National Formulary guidelines, sildenafil is available in 25mg, 50mg, and 100mg strengths. Most men start with the 50mg dose, taken approximately 30-60 minutes before sexual activity. Your prescriber may recommend adjusting to 25mg if you experience side effects, or increasing to 100mg if the initial dose isn't effective. Remember, only one dose should be taken in any 24-hour period, and sexual stimulation is still required for the medication to work effectively.
Choosing Between Sildenafil and Viagra
At checkout, you can choose between generic sildenafil and branded Viagra - both contain the same active ingredient, sildenafil citrate, and work in exactly the same way. The generic version offers significant cost savings whilst maintaining the same quality and effectiveness as the branded alternative. Both options undergo rigorous testing to meet UK pharmaceutical standards and are manufactured by licensed facilities.
Understanding How Sildenafil Works
Sildenafil 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 when you're sexually aroused. The effects typically last 4-6 hours, though this doesn't mean you'll have an erection for this entire time. Fatty meals may delay the onset of action, so consider taking sildenafil on an empty stomach for optimal results.
Safety Considerations When Switching
Before switching to sildenafil, inform your prescriber about all current medications, particularly if you're taking nitrates for chest pain, alpha-blockers for blood pressure, or medications for pulmonary hypertension. Men with severe heart disease, recent stroke or heart attack, or severe liver problems may not be suitable candidates for sildenafil treatment. Our consultation process ensures these important safety factors are thoroughly assessed.
Ordering Process and Delivery
Once your consultation is approved, you'll receive a prescription that's dispensed by our UK-registered pharmacy. We offer discreet packaging and various delivery options, including next-day delivery across the UK. Your medication will arrive in plain packaging with no indication of contents, ensuring complete privacy and discretion.
