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.

Essential Viagra 100mg Safety and Usage Guide

Before Taking Viagra 100mg

Viagra 100mg requires a prescription from a UK-licensed healthcare professional. You must complete a clinical assessment to ensure this medication is suitable for your individual circumstances. The assessment evaluates your cardiovascular health, current medications, and medical history. EverydayMeds provides both branded Viagra and generic sildenafil - both contain the same active ingredient (sildenafil citrate) but generic options offer significant cost savings.

Dosage and Timing Instructions

The standard starting dose is typically 50mg, but your prescriber may recommend 100mg if needed. Take your prescribed dose 30-60 minutes before planned sexual activity. The medication works for 4-6 hours, though this doesn't mean your erection will last this long. Sexual stimulation is still required as Viagra doesn't cause automatic erections. Never exceed one dose in any 24-hour period.

What to Avoid

Avoid fatty or heavy meals before taking Viagra 100mg as these can delay the medication's effectiveness. Alcohol should be limited as it can reduce the medication's effectiveness and increase the risk of side effects like dizziness. Never combine Viagra with nitrate medications (such as GTN spray or isosorbide tablets) as this can cause dangerous drops in blood pressure.

Who Cannot Take Viagra 100mg

Viagra 100mg is not suitable for everyone. You cannot take this medication if you're currently using nitrate medications for chest pain, have severe heart disease, recent heart attack or stroke (within 6 months), severe liver problems, or very low blood pressure. The medication is only licensed for adult men over 18 years with erectile dysfunction.

Monitoring and Side Effects

Common side effects may include headaches, facial flushing, indigestion, and nasal congestion. These are usually mild and temporary. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience chest pain, sudden vision loss, or an erection lasting over 4 hours. Regular review with your healthcare provider ensures the treatment remains appropriate for your needs.

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.
