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.

Understanding Viagra Prescription Requirements in the UK

Viagra is a prescription-only medicine (POM) in the UK, meaning you cannot purchase it without a valid prescription from a licensed healthcare provider. The active ingredient, sildenafil citrate, requires clinical assessment to ensure safe and appropriate use for treating erectile dysfunction.

At EverydayMeds, our streamlined online consultation process connects you with UK-licensed prescribers who can assess your suitability for Viagra or generic sildenafil treatment. Both medications contain the same active ingredient and work identically, with sildenafil offering a more affordable alternative to the branded Viagra.

Online Consultation Process - Simple Steps to Access Treatment

Starting your Viagra prescription journey with EverydayMeds takes just minutes. Begin by completing our confidential medical questionnaire, which covers your medical history, current medications, and symptoms. This information helps our prescribers determine if Viagra or sildenafil is appropriate for your individual circumstances.

Our UK-licensed healthcare professionals review every consultation thoroughly, checking for potential contraindications and drug interactions. If approved, you can choose between branded Viagra or generic sildenafil at checkout, with prescriptions processed the same day for next-day delivery.

Who Can Get a Viagra Prescription?

Viagra prescriptions are available for adult men over 18 experiencing erectile dysfunction. During the consultation, our prescribers assess your cardiovascular health, current medications, and medical history to ensure safe treatment.

Certain conditions may affect your suitability for Viagra, including severe heart disease, recent stroke or heart attack, very low blood pressure, or taking nitrate medications. Our clinical assessment identifies these factors to ensure your safety and treatment effectiveness.

Viagra vs Sildenafil - Choosing Your Treatment

Both Viagra and sildenafil contain identical active ingredients and demonstrate the same effectiveness for treating erectile dysfunction. The key difference lies in cost, with generic sildenafil typically offering significant savings compared to branded Viagra.

EverydayMeds provides both options, allowing you to choose based on your preferences and budget. Whether you select Viagra or sildenafil, you receive the same high-quality treatment with identical clinical outcomes.

Dosage and Treatment Guidelines

Viagra and sildenafil are available in 25mg, 50mg, and 100mg strengths. Most men start with 50mg, taken approximately one hour before sexual activity. The dose may be adjusted based on effectiveness and tolerability, with a maximum of one tablet per 24 hours.

Treatment works by increasing blood flow when sexually aroused and does not cause automatic erections. Effects typically last 4-6 hours, providing flexibility for intimate moments while maintaining safety.

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.
