How Viagra Works and What to Expect
Understanding Viagra's Mechanism of Action
Viagra belongs to a class of medications called PDE5 inhibitors. It works by blocking the phosphodiesterase type 5 enzyme, which increases blood flow to the penis when you're sexually aroused. Importantly, Viagra does not cause automatic erections - sexual stimulation is still required for the medication to be effective.
Dosage and Timing Guidelines
Viagra is typically prescribed in three strengths: 25mg, 50mg, and 100mg tablets. Most patients start with the 50mg dose, which can be adjusted based on effectiveness and tolerability. The medication should be taken 30-60 minutes before sexual activity, with effects lasting 4-6 hours. This doesn't mean your erection will last this long - rather, the medication remains active in your system during this period.
Branded vs Generic Options
EverydayMeds offers both Viagra (the branded version) and sildenafil (the generic alternative). Both medications contain identical active ingredients and work in exactly the same way. The main difference is cost - generic sildenafil typically offers significant savings whilst maintaining the same clinical effectiveness as branded Viagra.
