Men in the UK will soon be able to buy Viagra over the counter for the first time after the erectile dysfunction drug was reclassified.
Those aged 18 and over will no longer need to see a GP for a prescription after the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) announced that it is changing the status of Viagra Connect tablets so they can be sold in pharmacies following a conversation with a pharmacist.
US pharmaceutical company Pfizer said it is working on plans to launch the non-prescription version of the medicine in the UK in the spring of 2018. A four-pack of the sildenafil tablets will cost around £19.99 and an eight-pack £34.99. Men who buy it will be advised that they can take a 50 mg tablet an hour before having sex, but should not use more than one pill a day. Sildenafil is already available on NHS prescription free of charge.
The decision to reclassify the drug follows a public consultation, the MHRA said. Pharmacists will be able to determine whether treatment is appropriate for the patient and can give advice on erectile dysfunction, usage of the medicine, potential side effects and assess if further consultation with a general practitioner is required.
“The move to make Viagra Connect more widely accessible will encourage men to seek help within the healthcare system and increase awareness of erectile dysfunction.”
Mick Foy, Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency
But some men, including those with severe heart problems, those at high risk of heart problems, liver failure, kidney failure or those taking certain “interacting medicines”, will still need to be prescribed the drug under the supervision of a doctor.
It is hoped that making the drug more widely available will mean than men who may have not previously sought help will be more likely to do so. Health officials also hope the move will also help steer people away from buying drugs websites operating illegally.
The MHRA said that erectile dysfunction medicines are a “popular target” for criminals selling unlicensed and counterfeit medicines, over the past five years the Agency has seized more than £50m of unlicensed and counterfeit erectile dysfunction medicines.
“This decision is good news for men’s health,” said Mick Foy, MHRA’s group manager in vigilance and risk management of medicines. “The move to make Viagra Connect more widely accessible will encourage men to seek help within the healthcare system and increase awareness of erectile dysfunction.
“Erectile dysfunction can be a debilitating condition, so it’s important men feel they have fast access to quality and legitimate care, and do not feel they need to turn to counterfeit online supplies which could have potentially serious side effects.”
Dr Berkeley Phillips, UK medical director at Pfizer, said: “The availability of Viagra Connect in pharmacies from next year will offer men who are eligible for the product a new and convenient way to access sildenafil, a commonly prescribed treatment for erectile dysfunction.
“We understand some men may avoid seeking support and treatment for this condition, so we believe giving them the option to talk to a pharmacist and buy Viagra Connect could be a real step forward in encouraging more men into the healthcare system.
“As erectile dysfunction may be a sign of an underlying condition such as diabetes, high blood pressure, or heart disease, there could also be a wider benefit to public health in the long term. We hope that this forthcoming new opportunity to purchase a genuine treatment via pharmacy will also reduce the likelihood of men turning to potentially ineffective and dangerous counterfeits from illicit sources.”

Nitroglycerin-based medicines for chest pain come in many shapes and types, most commonly pencicilines and nitrates, and are commonly sold in pharmacies, supermarket automobiles and grocery stores.

That's why I have been trying to find an answer to this question. I want to know if there's any specific drug that I can use if I have certain health problems or if I'm taking other medications.
This is a question that I want to be answered by my readers, so let's talk about it. In this article, we'll answer some specific health questions and show how to take Viagra.
Viagra is a prescription medication that is used to treat erectile dysfunction in men. It contains sildenafil citrate, the same active ingredient as the original Viagra.
In addition to its effectiveness in treating ED, Viagra is also used to treat high blood pressure, a condition that causes blood vessels to tighten, which can lead to more blood flowing through the body. This is called atherosclerosis (the narrowing of arteries) and it is caused by a chemical called phosphodiesterase type 5. Viagra works by blocking the action of a chemical called cGMP that is produced by the corpus cavernosum.
Viagra is taken orally and can be taken with or without food. The recommended dosage is usually one 200 mg pill taken 30 minutes to an hour before sexual activity. Viagra comes in tablet form, so the dosage is dependent on the condition being treated.
The drug is taken in a single dose of one 100 mg tablet. It is taken once per day. The recommended starting dose is usually one tablet taken with a full glass of water. If you have certain health issues or if you're taking other medications, a higher dose may be prescribed. You should also take the medication as directed, only as directed.
When you buy Viagra from your doctor, you can check the expiration date of the drug and compare it to the expiration date on the packaging. Do not take a pill that has expired in a pharmacy. It is also important to tell your pharmacist about all the medications you are taking and any drugs you're currently taking, including prescription drugs, nonprescription drugs, and herbal or nutritional products.
If you have any questions or concerns about Viagra, contact your doctor or pharmacist. It is very important to talk to a doctor about your health and the drug you take.
