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 vs Sildenafil Pricing

When considering erectile dysfunction treatment costs, it's important to understand the difference between Viagra (branded) and sildenafil (generic). Both medications contain the same active ingredient - sildenafil citrate - but Viagra typically costs more due to brand recognition and marketing. Generic sildenafil may offer significant savings whilst providing identical therapeutic effects. EverydayMeds provides transparent pricing for both options, allowing you to make an informed choice during checkout.

Available Strengths and Dosing

Viagra tablets are available in 25mg, 50mg, and 100mg strengths. Most men start with 50mg, taken approximately one hour before sexual activity. Your prescriber may adjust this to 25mg if you experience side effects, or increase to 100mg if the lower dose proves insufficient. Remember that only one tablet should be taken within any 24-hour period, and sexual stimulation is still required for the medication to work effectively.

Clinical Assessment Process

Before receiving either Viagra or sildenafil, you must complete a clinical consultation with our UK-licensed prescribers. This assessment evaluates your medical history, current medications, and cardiovascular health to ensure treatment safety. The process is typically completed online through our secure platform, with most consultations reviewed within 24 hours. This prescription requirement applies to both branded and generic options.

Cost-Effective Treatment Considerations

When evaluating treatment costs, consider factors beyond initial price. Generic sildenafil offers identical effectiveness to branded Viagra at a lower cost per tablet. Both medications work by increasing blood flow to the penis during sexual arousal, with effects lasting 4-6 hours. Your choice between branded and generic options won't affect treatment efficacy, making cost a primary differentiating factor for many patients.

Important Safety Information

Regardless of whether you choose Viagra or sildenafil, certain safety considerations apply. These medications cannot be taken alongside nitrate medications or riociguat due to dangerous interactions. Men with severe heart conditions, recent heart attacks or strokes, or severe liver problems may not be suitable candidates. Always provide complete and accurate medical information during your consultation to ensure safe prescribing.

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.
