How Viagra Works and Dosage Information
Understanding Viagra Treatment
Viagra is a PDE5 inhibitor that works by increasing blood flow to the penis during sexual arousal. The medication blocks the phosphodiesterase type 5 enzyme, which allows blood vessels to relax and expand. Importantly, Viagra does not cause automatic erections - sexual stimulation is still required for the medication to be effective.
Dosage and Administration
Viagra is typically prescribed starting at 50mg, taken approximately one hour before sexual activity. Depending on effectiveness and tolerability, your prescriber may adjust the dose to 25mg or increase to 100mg. Only one tablet should be taken within any 24-hour period. Taking Viagra with fatty meals may delay its onset of action, so consider timing around food intake.
Viagra vs Sildenafil: Your Choice
At EverydayMeds, patients can choose between Viagra (the original branded version) and Sildenafil (the generic alternative) at checkout. Both contain identical active ingredients and work in exactly the same way. The main difference is cost - generic Sildenafil offers the same clinical benefits at a lower price point, whilst Viagra is the original formulation from Pfizer.
Eligibility and Safety Considerations
Viagra requires a prescription following consultation with a UK-licensed prescriber. The clinical assessment evaluates your cardiovascular health, current medications, and medical history to ensure safe prescribing. Men taking nitrates for heart conditions, those with severe heart disease, or recent stroke/heart attack history may not be suitable candidates for Viagra treatment.
