Buy Sildenafil Tablets Online - Effective ED Treatment
Erectile Dysfunction (ED) is a very common phenomenon, affecting 150 million men globally. While it is most common in middle age, affecting over 50% of men over 40, it can develop at any age.
Sildenafil is an effective treatment for the majority of men experiencing ED on an intermittent or regular basis.
Sildenafil is the generic name for the drug more commonly known as Viagra, and choosing this non-branded version is often a more affordable alternative. It is only available with a prescription and comes in a choice of 25mg, 50mg and 100mg dosages. Sildenafil typically gets to work within 30 minutes and is successful for around 75% of men with ED.
Sildenafil works by temporarily increasing the blood flow to the penis, resulting in more reliable and longer-lasting erections. While it is effective for most men, a short consultation is necessary to ensure that this is a safe and viable treatment for you.
The Independent Pharmacy provides a quick, easy and totally discreet consultation to ensure that this treatment is the best erectile dysfunction treatment for your needs.
This treatment requires an online consultation for review by our medical team. The decision to supply the specific treatment and quantity requested will be based on whether our medical team are satisfied that it will be safe, appropriate, and effective.

How Does Sildenafil Work?
Getting and maintaining an erection requires a significant amount of blood to be able to flow to and fill the spongy cells inside your penis. However, there are a range of factors that may prevent this blood flow, and this may cause erection difficulties - which is known as erectile dysfunction.
Sildenafil belongs to a group of drugs called PDE5 inhibitors. These relax blood vessels by blocking the enzymes found in the blood vessel walls that restrict blood flow. This temporarily improves blood flow to the penis, making an erection possible.
In most cases, Sildenafil gets to work in 30-60 minutes and remains effective for 4-6 hours. However, you still need to be sexually excited for the treatment to be effective.
How To Take Sildenafil
You should take Sildenafil tablets by swallowing them whole with water 30-60 minutes before having sex.
While you can take SIldenafil with food, it may take longer to get to work if taken when eating a large meal.
Grapefruit and grapefruit juice should be avoided as these can interact with Sildenafil in ways that can make it less effective.
The recommended dosage is 50mg. You should not exceed a dosage of 100mg in 24 hours. You should not take Sildenafil more than once a day.
Store Sildenafil in its original packaging at below 30°C.
Keep Sildenafil out of the sight and reach of children. Do not consume when past the expiry date.

Sildenafil Tablets - ED Treatment reviews
Sildenafil Tablets (25mg, 50mg & 100mg) FAQs
Sildenafil works by affecting the enzymes that control the blood vessels in the penis. By enabling blood flow to the penis, you are more likely to be able to get and keep an erection long enough for satisfactory sex. Studies show that Sildenafil is effective in around 75% of men with ED.
Sildenafil typically gets to work within 30-60 minutes of the tablet being swallowed. If you have taken Sildenafil with large quantities of food, it may take longer to take effect and so it could be longer before you’re able to get an erection.
Sildenafil is the generic form of Viagra. They are essentially the same treatment sold under a different name. Viagra is a well-known brand and therefore more expensive than the generic equivalent. In terms of ingredients and effectiveness, however, they are identical.
You should not take Sildenafil with other medications unless your doctor or pharmacist has told you that it is safe to do so. Sildenafil can interact with other medications, especially nitrates used in the treatment of chest pains and may result in a dangerously low drop in blood pressure.
If SIldenafil doesn't work for you the first time it may be because:
you have not waited long enough for it to get to work before attempting to have see
you have waited too long after taking it
the dose was not high enough for your needs
you were not sufficiently sexually aroused
States of anxiety and stress can prevent sexual arousal and may therefore make Sildenafil less effective. It is still important to be aroused and as relaxed as possible.
No. There is no clear evidence stating that Sildenafil affects the fertility of men who take it.
Sildenafil is safe to take in the long term. There is no evidence to suggest that taking Sildenafil in accordance with dosage guidelines has any negative effects over the span of many months or even years.
The different strengths of Sildenafil (25mg, 50mg, 100mg) refer to the amount of the active ingredient present in each tablet. 50mg is a common starting dose for most men with ED, and this may be increased or decreased depending on your needs.
There are several alternatives to Sildenafil ranging from alternative medications to non-medical alternatives.
Medical alternatives include the generic medications Tadalafil (often sold under the brand name Cialis) and Vardenafil (often sold under the brand name (Levitra).
These are also PDE5 inhibitors and work in the same ways.
However, studies show that the effects of Tadalafil are longer-lasting with effects lasting up to 36 hours.
Other non-medical alternatives include penis pumps that use suction to draw blood flow to the penis, or penile rings that inhibit the flow of blood away from the penis for longer-lasting erections.
It's quick and easy to make sure that Sildenafil is the right ED treatment for you, before deciding on a dosage that best fits your needs.
A short online consultation is needed to make sure that this treatment is a good fit for you. This process is quick, easy and completely confidential.
