  • More men with erection problems could get help
  • The number of men looking for illicit treatments for ED could be reduced
  • Pharmacists can offer a wider range of treatment in face-to-face consultations
  • You may not need to see a doctor to receive ED medication
  • The regulation of Viagra in the UK can be improved, making it safer to buy

The active ingredient is tried and tested – Viagra Connect contains the same active ingredient as Viagra and Sildenafil, two medications that are well-established for treating erectile dysfunction. Medications containing Sildenfil work in a similar way to other erectile dysfunction medicines. But Viagra Connect, unlike other treatments, is be available to buy over-the-counter.

One hour after taking 50mg I get a beautiful erection, sensitivity is good, climax is wonderful. My wife loves it and climaxes every time, sometimes twice. Side effects can be a flushed skin about an hour in and sometimes a bit of a headache (not severe, but there). Two Aspirin fix things. Wonderful product. Happy wife, happy life!
