What is Sildenafil?

Sildenafil is a drug used for erectile dysfunction in men. It is the generic form of the well-known drug, Viagra. The patent for Viagra expired in 2013, which allowed manufacturers other than Pfizer to make the medication. This, in turn, drove down the price of the generic form of Viagra. Sildenafil is a popular choice of treatment for erectile dysfunction, as medically there is no difference between Sildenafil and it's branded alternative, yet Sildenafil is a much more affordable option.

About Sildenafil

Sildenafil Alternatives

Although Sildenafil provides the most affordable treatment, it may not always be best suited to your needs. Levitra (or Vardenafil) is the most suitable treatment for people who suffer from diabetes, while Cialis (or Tadalafil), provides a longer lasting effect. There is also now an over the counter option of Sildenafil in the form of Viagra Connect. This contains Sildenafil 50mg. 

Vitaros cream is another alternative to oral medications in treating erectile dysfunction. 

You can also look at counselling since some men suffer from erectile dysfunction as a result of nerves. If you think your ED is psychological, therapy may provide long term benefit if successful. 

Different Manufacturers

As Sildenafil is a generic medication, there are multiple manufacturers of the same drug. This means you may see differences in packaging and even the colour of tablet from prescription to prescription. All manufacturers must meet MHRA standards, and so you can be confident the medication you receive contains exactly the same amount of active ingredient as any other.

In rare instances, some patients may notice one manufacturer is more suitable for them. This can be due to other ingredients in the medication such as colouring, which they may be allergic too. If you have noticed a particular manufacturer is better for you, please e-mail us after placing your order requesting which manufacturer you would like. We will then do our best to accommodate your request, or offer a refund if this is not possible.

Manufacturers of Sildenafil tablets in the UK include Teva, Mylan, Accord, Actavis, Dr Reddys, Sandoz and Zentiva amongst others. 

Whichever ED treatment you are prescribed, it is important you read the patient information leaflet carefully and take note of the side effects which may occur. You can also read more about Sildenafil, Sildenafil and other ED treatments and condition information at the NHS choices website.
