Experiencing Erectile Dysfunction (ED) can be challenging, and you might notice it's more pronounced in colder weather. If you're searching for a prescription for ED medication like Sildenafil (Viagra), Tadalafil (Cialis), Vardenafil (Levitra), or Avanafil (Spedra) online in the EU, you've come to the right place. Hi-Doctor connects you with EU-licensed doctors who can review your case and, if appropriate, issue a valid electronic prescription. The consultation is just €35, and you receive your prescription in under 24 hours, valid at any pharmacy across the EU.
How it works: get your ED medication prescription in 4 steps

- If approved, you receive a valid electronic prescription (PDF file) in your Hi-Doctor account and by email within 24 hours.
- Print the PDF or show it on your phone and present it at any pharmacy in the EU to collect the medication.
Who qualifies for ED medication
An EU-licensed doctor assesses your individual health profile to determine if ED medication is appropriate for you. They look for specific criteria, including your medical history and any existing conditions. Generally, you may be a candidate if you are experiencing consistent difficulty achieving or maintaining an erection. However, the doctor will also check for contraindications such as severe heart conditions, uncontrolled high blood pressure, recent stroke or heart attack, or if you are taking nitrate medications. Your safety is the priority, and the doctor ensures the treatment aligns with your overall health.
What ED medication actually does (and doesn't do)
ED medications like Sildenafil (Viagra) and Tadalafil (Cialis) are known as PDE5 inhibitors. They work by increasing blood flow to the penis, which helps you achieve and maintain an erection when you are sexually stimulated. They do not work by themselves; sexual arousal is still necessary. While these medications are highly effective for many, they are not a cure for the underlying cause of ED, nor will they increase your libido. You typically take them 30-60 minutes before sexual activity, and their effects can last from 4 to 36 hours, depending on the specific medication.

Side effects and when to stop
Like all medications, ED treatments can have side effects. Common side effects include headache, flushing, nasal congestion, indigestion, and temporary visual disturbances. These are usually mild and temporary. However, certain red flags require immediate medical attention: a sudden loss of vision, hearing, or an erection lasting longer than four hours (priapism). If you experience any severe side effects or are concerned, stop the medication and seek medical advice immediately. Always discuss your full medical history with the doctor before starting treatment.
