Who qualifies for Viagra
Our EU-licensed doctors look at your overall health to determine if Viagra is appropriate. Generally, you qualify if you are an adult male experiencing erectile dysfunction. However, certain conditions and medications mean Viagra is not for you. For instance, if you take nitrates for chest pain, Viagra is contraindicated. The doctor also considers your cardiovascular health, blood pressure, and any history of stroke or heart attack. Your online medical questionnaire helps the doctor understand your specific situation and assess risks, ensuring your safety.
What Viagra actually does (and doesn't do)
Viagra (sildenafil) is a PDE5 inhibitor that works by increasing blood flow to the penis when you are sexually aroused. It does not cause an erection automatically; you still need sexual stimulation for it to work. Viagra helps you achieve and maintain an erection firm enough for sexual activity. It typically starts working within 30-60 minutes and its effects last for about 4 hours. Viagra does not cure erectile dysfunction, nor does it increase sexual desire. It addresses the physical mechanism of achieving an erection when the conditions are right.
Side effects and when to stop
Like all medications, Viagra can cause side effects. Most are mild and temporary, such as headache, flushing, indigestion, nasal congestion, or dizziness. Some users report temporary visual disturbances like blurred vision or a blue tint to their vision; these usually resolve as the medication wears off. However, a rare but serious side effect is Non-Arteritic Anterior Ischemic Optic Neuropathy (NAION), which involves sudden loss of vision in one eye. If you experience sudden vision loss, severe chest pain, prolonged erection (priapism), or an allergic reaction, stop taking Viagra immediately and seek urgent medical attention. Your doctor will discuss all potential side effects and risks with you before prescribing.
