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.

Licensed Sources for Viagra and Sildenafil in the UK

Online Pharmacy Services

EverydayMeds provides convenient access to both Viagra (branded) and sildenafil (generic) through our regulated online service. After completing a clinical assessment with a UK-licensed prescriber, patients can choose between branded Viagra or the more affordable sildenafil generic at checkout. All medications are dispensed from our UK pharmacy with next-day delivery available.

High Street Pharmacy Options

Major pharmacy chains including online pharmacy, online pharmacy, and independent chemists offer ED consultations. Viagra Connect (50mg) is available without prescription for men aged 18-65, whilst prescription-strength Viagra requires a consultation with the pharmacy's prescribing service or your GP.

Private Healthcare Providers

Private clinics and sexual health centres provide face-to-face consultations with same-day medication collection. Many offer both Viagra and sildenafil options, allowing patients to choose based on preference and budget. Consultation fees typically range from £20-50, with medication costs additional.

Travelling with ED Medication

When travelling, carry medications in original packaging with pharmacy labels clearly visible. UK airport security permits personal medications in hand luggage. For extended trips abroad, ensure you have sufficient supply as Viagra availability and regulations vary internationally. Consider bringing a repeat prescription letter from your prescriber.

What to Avoid

Never purchase from unlicensed websites, social media sellers, or overseas suppliers without UK authorisation. Counterfeit ED medications pose serious health risks and may contain dangerous ingredients. Always verify the pharmacy is registered with the General Pharmaceutical Council (GPhC).

Cost Considerations

Sildenafil generic typically costs 60-80% less than branded Viagra whilst containing identical active ingredients. Many patients find generic sildenafil equally effective, making it an attractive option for regular use. EverydayMeds offers transparent pricing for both options during the checkout process.

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.
