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. You can read more about the effects of drinking alcohol on your sex life here.

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.

How do I order Viagra Connect?


As Viagra Connect is a pharmacy only medication, we need to make sure it's safe for you to use. You will be required to complete an online assessment form when placing your order. This will allow our pharmacist to review your order and make sure this medication is suitable for you.

How Long Does Viagra Connect Take To Work?

When taken on an empty stomach, Viagra Connect is absorbed relatively rapidly and it will usually work within 30-60 minutes, although it may take up to 120 minutes in a small percentage of men.

What is the difference between Viagra and Viagra Connect?


There is no difference between Viagra and VIagra connect in terms of their active ingredient of effectiveness. Viagra Connect only comes as a 50mg strength, while normal Viagra is available as 25, 50 or 100mg strengths. Otherwise, they are exactly the same, containing exactly the same active ingredient. As Pfizer was granted a license to market the 50mg strength as a pharmacy medicine, this is known as Viagra Connect. While the packaging may be different, the content of the tablets is the same.

Is there Viagra Connect 100mg?


No. There is no Viagra Connect in a 100mg strength. You would need to request either generic Viagra (Sildenafil) as a 100mg strength, or Viagra itself.
