Viagra (Sildenafil)

What is Viagra (Sildenafil) for?

Viagra is the first choice for millions of men in the treatment of erectile dysfunction. Viagra can give men their confidence back in the bedroom and even help to improve relationships in the long run.

As Sildenafil was initially developed as a possible treatment of angina and high blood pressure many years ago, the ‘little blue pill’ has been researched extensively over the subsequent years to find what other benefits of Viagra there may be, although currently it is only prescribed in the UK to treat erectile dysfunction or pulmonary hypertension (we only prescribe for erectile dysfunction however and you cannot purchase Viagra for any other condition).

Though a cheaper Generic Viagra is available, many men still prefer to buy Viagra as it is a reputable and familiar brand to them.

Buy cheap Viagra online

As we previously mentioned, UK Generic Viagra may be a cost-effective alternative when considering whether to purchase Viagra or trying to find cheap Viagra. Be careful however as there are many illegal and illicit websites online that claim to be registered online pharmacies, but are in fact not. Many of these will usually be operated overseas, have no contact details such as a phone number will not have any verifiable credentials such as The General Pharmaceutical Council (GPhC) and Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) logo.

Look out for these and other signs of an illegal website selling counterfeit medicine, and you should only buy Viagra UK, from a fully registered pharmacy that displays their credentials. Suspiciously cheap Viagra online may also be another giveaway that the website is not all that it seems. Some fake websites may sell ‘Viagra online’ that contains anything from paint dust, to even rat poison – putting your life at risk.

What is Generic Viagra?

Sildenafil - the active ingredient in Viagra - is sometimes referred to as Generic Viagra or ‘cheap Viagra’. It should work in the exact same way as Viagra, but it is available at a much lower price. Generic Sildenafil is ideal for men who have achieved success with the branded Viagra, but are perhaps on a budget or want to save money. It is for this reason why some men would choose to buy Sildenafil online instead.

Can I get Viagra on the NHS?

After all this time, branded Viagra is still the preferred treatment for ED by millions of men. Unfortunately, Pfizer Viagra is very difficult buy on the NHS as it not normally prescribed by NHS doctors. Instead, you will likely be prescribed a cheaper Generic Viagra, also known as Sildenafil. There’s nothing wrong with this though as Sildenafil is the active ingredient, and should be just as effective. Moreover, you will be limited to a very strict supply of ED pills each month when prescribed by your own doctor.

How does Viagra (Sildenafil) work?

Sildenafil is the active ingredient in Viagra, which can help men achieve far stronger and better long-lasting erections by enabling much better blood flow.

Erections occur due to a chemical reaction in the body, which causes blood vessels to dilate near the penis. This happens so that blood can fill the smooth muscle (corpus cavernosum) in the penis, making it harder.

However, if you have ED, these vessels stay tight and don’t allow enough blood flow, meaning you will find it difficult to achieve or maintain an erection.

PDE5 in the enzyme that causes these restrictions to the vessels. However Viagra, being a PDE5 inhibitor, will stop this enzyme from working. This aids blood flow, giving you a much better, harder erection.
