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.

Emergency Situations Requiring Immediate Medical Help

Urgent Medical Situations

Certain situations require immediate medical attention when taking Viagra 100mg. Priapism, an erection lasting more than 4 hours, is a medical emergency that can cause permanent damage if untreated. Contact emergency services immediately if this occurs. Sudden loss of vision in one or both eyes, or sudden hearing loss, also requires urgent medical care as these may indicate serious complications.

Cardiovascular Warning Signs

Chest pain, dizziness, or nausea during sexual activity may indicate cardiovascular issues. Stop sexual activity immediately and seek medical help. These symptoms could suggest that your heart cannot handle the physical demands of sexual activity. Your doctor may need to reassess whether Viagra 100mg remains suitable for you.

When to Contact Your GP

Schedule a routine appointment if you experience persistent headaches, facial flushing, or indigestion that interferes with daily life. If Viagra 100mg becomes less effective over time, discuss this with your healthcare provider rather than increasing the dose yourself. They may suggest switching to sildenafil generic or adjusting your treatment plan.

Regular Health Monitoring

Men with diabetes, high blood pressure, or heart conditions should have regular check-ups whilst taking Viagra 100mg. Your doctor may want to monitor your cardiovascular health and ensure the medication remains appropriate. EverydayMeds offers both branded Viagra and generic sildenafil options, allowing flexibility in your treatment approach following proper medical consultation.

Medication Interactions

Always inform healthcare providers that you're taking Viagra 100mg before starting new medications. Some drugs, particularly nitrates used for chest pain, can cause dangerous interactions. Never take Viagra with recreational drugs containing nitrates, and always declare your ED medication during medical consultations or hospital admissions.

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.
