In this article, we will cover the most common questions we hear from patients wanting to get a prescription for Sildenafil online as well as the basics of this medication to get you started.
In the U.S., Sildenafil (the ingredient in Viagra), is only available by prescription and through the care of a U.S. licensed doctor.
Sildenafil is not available over the counter at a pharmacy or by any other means other than a prescription.
And we recommend steering clear of any website or store that is trying to tell you otherwise.
The lack of availability over the counter helps ensure that only patients that are best suited to treatment are using Sildenafil, as there can be dangerous interactions with certain conditions or other medications.
Sildenafil is one drug in a class of drugs called PDE-5 Inhibitors.
Other drugs in this class are:
Interesting Side Note:
The erectile benefits of Sildenafil were discovered accidentally while Pfizer was looking for a treatment for chest pain in 1998.
The majority of patients on Sildenafil are using it to treat erectile dysfunction. Although some may be using this product for a condition called Pulmonary Hypertension to help reduce high blood pressure in the lungs.
To get an erection, the body uses chemical signals that tell the vessels to open up and flood blood into the penis when mentally stimulated.
Normally, the body then almost as quickly uses an enzyme (PDE-5) to break down those blood flow chemicals, causing blood to leave and the erection to go down.
Sildenafil works by blocking the breakdown enzyme (PDE-5), to help keep the blood flow coming and maintain the erection.
Patients will generally see a response after 20-30 minutes of taking the medication.
However:
If taken with a high-fat meal, the peak response can be delayed up to an hour. So you may want to skip the double fudge dessert on date night if you want a quicker onset.
In most people, the effects of Sildenafil last about 2 hours.
Any duration that is 2 hours or less that works for you and your partner means that you have taken an appropriate dose for you.
But Remember!:
Even if the effects have worn off, the medication is still in your system for up to a day after dosing - so no multiple doses in a day.
If you find your dose lasting 4+ hours, seek medical attention as this is considered Priapism and could have damaging effects on the tissues.
