Viagra is an effective medicine for the treatment of erectile dysfunction. It’s been used for over two decades, and in long-term studies it’s been found to be effective in more than 90% of men.


Sildenafil is the non-branded version of the medicine. It’s up to 80% cheaper than branded Viagra® but works just as effectively for treating erectile dysfunction. Both Viagra and its generic version contain the active ingredient sildenafil.

Viagra is a medication you take when you want to be ready for sex. Here are some tips:

  1. Take one tablet 30–60 minutes before sex. It lasts in your body for about 4–6 hours.
  2. It works better on an empty or nearly empty stomach. Avoid fatty foods and alcohol before taking it.
  3. You need to be aroused. Viagra won’t give you an erection automatically if you’re not aroused, so start in foreplay for best results.

Like all medications, ED treatments can cause some side effects.


Side effects for Viagra are seen in around 16% of men. They may include headaches, facial flushing, and indigestion. These side effects typically end when treatment is stopped.

Why Viagra?

Viagra (sildenafil) is an ED medication that helps improve blood flow to the penis by blocking an enzyme called PDE5. This makes it easier to get a harder erection.


Taken orally in tablet form, it starts working in just 30–60 minutes, lasting in your body for 4–6 hours. Viagra doesn’t cause arousal, so don’t worry — you’ll only get an erection when you’re feeling aroused.


Viagra is available as an unbranded tablet called sildenafil. It’s up to 80% cheaper, but has the same active ingredient and is just as effective as branded Viagra.
