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.

Comparing Viagra and Sildenafil Treatment Costs

Understanding Viagra Pricing in the UK

Viagra tablet costs can vary significantly depending on whether you choose the branded version or generic sildenafil. Both medications contain the same active ingredient - sildenafil citrate - and work identically to treat erectile dysfunction. The price difference primarily reflects brand licensing and marketing costs rather than therapeutic effectiveness. At EverydayMeds, patients can choose between Viagra and sildenafil during checkout, with transparent pricing displayed for both options.

Factors Affecting Treatment Value

Several factors influence the overall value of your erectile dysfunction treatment beyond the initial tablet cost. Dosage strength affects pricing, with 25mg, 50mg, and 100mg tablets available. Most patients start with 50mg, which may be adjusted based on effectiveness and tolerance. The consultation process remains identical whether you choose branded Viagra or generic sildenafil, with the same clinical assessment conducted by UK-licensed prescribers. Both options require identical safety evaluations and medical history reviews.

Generic Sildenafil: Cost-Effective Alternative

Generic sildenafil offers substantial cost savings whilst maintaining identical therapeutic benefits to branded Viagra. The generic version contains the same 25mg, 50mg, or 100mg doses of sildenafil citrate, manufactured to identical quality standards. Clinical studies demonstrate equivalent effectiveness between branded and generic formulations. Many patients find generic sildenafil provides excellent value without compromising treatment quality. The same contraindications apply, including avoiding use with nitrate medications and ensuring cardiovascular suitability through proper medical assessment.

Making Your Choice at EverydayMeds

Our online consultation process evaluates your suitability for sildenafil treatment regardless of whether you prefer branded Viagra or generic alternatives. The clinical assessment considers your medical history, current medications, and cardiovascular health to ensure safe prescribing. Both options require prescription-only medicine protocols and follow identical dispensing procedures. Patients often appreciate having choice between branded and generic options during checkout, allowing personal preference and budget considerations to guide their decision whilst maintaining consistent treatment standards.

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.
