How it works — get your Viagra prescription in 4 steps

  4. Pick up your medication at any EU pharmacy across the EU.

Who qualifies for Viagra

Our EU-licensed doctors assess your medical history to ensure Viagra is safe and appropriate for you. They look for specific criteria, including:

  • Your overall health: Conditions like heart disease, low blood pressure, or a history of stroke may make Viagra unsuitable.
  • Medications you currently take: Certain drugs, especially nitrates (often for chest pain) and alpha-blockers, can interact dangerously with Viagra. Always provide a full list of your current medications.
  • Allergies: Any known allergies to sildenafil or other ingredients in Viagra.
  • Severity of ED: While Viagra is effective for many, the doctor determines if it's the right first-line treatment for your specific situation.

The doctor's review ensures your safety and the effectiveness of the treatment. If Viagra is not suitable, they will explain why.

What Viagra actually does (and doesn't do)

Viagra (sildenafil) is a phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE5) inhibitor. It works by increasing blood flow to the penis when you are sexually stimulated. This helps you achieve and maintain an erection. It does not create an erection automatically; you still need sexual arousal for it to work. Viagra typically starts working within 30–60 minutes and its effects can last for up to 4 hours.

Viagra is not a cure for erectile dysfunction, nor does it increase libido. It is a treatment to help manage the symptoms of ED. It will not protect you against sexually transmitted infections.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Viagra can cause side effects. Most are mild and temporary. Common side effects include headache, flushing, nasal congestion, and indigestion. Some men experience visual disturbances, such as a blue tint to vision or increased light sensitivity.

More serious side effects are rare but require immediate medical attention. These include:

  • An erection lasting longer than 4 hours (priapism).
  • Sudden vision loss in one or both eyes.
  • Sudden decrease or loss of hearing.
  • Chest pain.

Always stop taking Viagra and seek immediate medical help if you experience any of these serious side effects. Our doctors provide full guidance on potential side effects and what to look out for.
