About Viagra Connect

Viagra Connect (sildenafil citrate) is an over the counter treatment for erectile dysfunction (ED). It is the first ED treatment to be licensed to treat erectile dysfunction without a prescription in the UK. The medicine was reclassified after a successful application to the MHRA by Pfizer.  It contains 50mg of the active ingredient Sildenafil citrate, which belongs to a class of drugs known as PDE-5 (Phosphodiesterase type 5) inhibitors.

PDE-5 inhibitors work by enhancing the erectile response when a man is sexually stimulated. They increase blood flow to the penis, and in turn, make it easier for a longer lasting and harder erection to be maintained. 

Effectiveness

In around 85% of men, Viagra has been shown to help men in maintaining an erection long enough to be able to have sexual intercourse. The effectiveness of the drug can vary depending on when and how you take it. It should be noted that an erection will only be achieved in the presence of a sexual stimulus.

Other factors affecting the effectiveness of Viagra Connect include whether you take it with food or an empty stomach. It's advisable to take it on an empty stomach, as this should allow the drug to be absorbed more quickly into your system. Taking Viagra Connect when drinking alcohol, particularly if consuming more than 2 units, may also cause the drug to be less effective.

What is the difference between Viagra Connect and Sildenafil?

Medically there is no difference between Sildenafil and Viagra connect. While one is a prescription only medicine, they both contain the same active ingredient and work in the same way. Pfizer are the manufacturer of Viagra Connect,  while multiple companies are able to manufacture the generic version of the drug, Sildenafil.

Generic medicines must still meet the same safety and efficacy standards of any branded medication in order to be approved. For this reason, many patients prefer to use a generic, as they are cheaper.

Alternative Treatment Options

Whether you've tried Viagra Connect without success, or you don't want to use medication, there are a number of other options you can explore to treat your ED.

ED can be as a result of psychological barriers and issues, so counselling or visualisation techniques can be effective in overcoming your problem.

If you have, or suspect you may have an underlying health condition such as diabetes or high blood pressure, and you have not previously talked to your GP about these, make an appointment. Your ED may resolve if your underlying health issues are addressed, saving you from requiring additional ED treatment.

Finally, if the above don't apply, and you are seeking alternative medical ED treatments, there are a number of these available. See the full range on offer on our erectile dysfunction treatments page.

Dosage

When taking Viagra Connect or any medication, be sure to read the information leaflet so you are aware of side effects or cautions.

The following dosages, timings and advice apply to taking Viagra Connect

DO

• Take ONE tablet, approximately an hour before sexual activity
  • This gives the medication time to be absorbed in to your system
• Swallow whole and with a glass of water
  • Taking after a meal can delay the onset of action of the drug (Sildenafil). It's best to take your dose on an empty stomach.

DON'T

• Take with food if you can help it. This may reduce the effectiveness.
• Take with alcohol, particularly more than 2 units. This is also likely to reduce effectiveness.
• Take more than the stated dose (ONE tablet). Taking more than this can result in serious side effects.

It should be noted that Viagra Connect still requires sexual stimulation to be effective. You should not expect to achieve an erection in the absence of sexual stimulation.
