Prescription vs Over The Counter Options
Over The Counter Viagra Connect
Viagra Connect contains 50mg sildenafil and can be purchased from UK pharmacies without prescription following a consultation with the pharmacist. This option suits men who prefer face-to-face discussions and find the fixed 50mg dose effective for their needs.
Prescription Viagra and Sildenafil Benefits
Prescription treatments offer significant advantages including flexible dosing options. Your prescriber may recommend starting with 25mg if you have certain health conditions, or increasing to 100mg if 50mg proves insufficient. EverydayMeds offers both branded Viagra and generic sildenafil at checkout, giving you choice based on your preferences and budget.
How These Medications Work
Both Viagra and sildenafil contain the same active ingredient that works by increasing blood flow to the penis during sexual arousal. The medication does not cause automatic erections - sexual stimulation remains necessary. Effects typically begin within 30-60 minutes and may last up to 4-6 hours, though this refers to the treatment window rather than erection duration.
Clinical Assessment Process
Our UK-licensed prescribers evaluate your medical history, current medications, and cardiovascular health during the online consultation. This assessment ensures the treatment is safe and appropriate for your individual circumstances. The process typically takes a few minutes and results are usually available the same day.
Important Safety Considerations
These medications are not suitable for everyone. Men taking nitrate medications for heart conditions, those with severe heart disease, or recent stroke survivors should not use sildenafil-based treatments. Always disclose all current medications and health conditions during your consultation to ensure safe prescribing.
