What is Viagra Connect?
Viagra Connect is the same as ordinary Viagra, but in a pack which can be supplied by pharmacies without a prescription. The active ingredient is called sildenafil. Sildenafil is available at a lower price than both Viagra Connect or Viagra.
Viagra Connect is available only in 50mg strength, in packs of 4 or 8 tablets. Viagra and sildenafil are available in 25mg, 50mg, and 100mg strengths in packs of 4 and 8, but more than one pack at a time can be supplied from Dr Fox.
Sildenafil is the generic version of Viagra. It is the same medicine with the same effects, but generic sildenafil is significantly lower cost. Most men have switched away from taking Viagra to taking sildenafil due to the big cost savings.
Further medicines information can be found on the Dr Fox Viagra and sildenafil pages.
Viagra Connect is sildenafil 50mg or Viagra 50mg branded and supplied in a different way. Sildenafil and Viagra require a prescription, which can be an electronic prescription, Viagra Connect does not.
How to buy Viagra Connect
In order to obtain Viagra Connect men must undergo an assessment. This assessment can be carried out online, or by a pharmacist in-store. The in-store assessment may require an appointment.
Dr Fox provides an online assessment for Viagra Connect and other erectile dysfunction treatment. At the end of the online assessment a range of erectile dysfunction medicines can be requested, including low cost sildenafil or Viagra Connect, Viagra. Alternative treatments Cialis, Levitra, and Spedra are also available. All strengths and various quantities and combinations can be requested.
Medical checks for erectile dysfunction
Before requesting treatment from Dr Fox, men must read the medical information which provides background information about erectile dysfunction and its treatment.
It is important that men with erectile dysfunction are properly assessed and advised about treatment. This includes consulting a doctor prior to obtaining treatment online.
Why can Viagra Connect be supplied without a prescription?
How do erectile dysfunction medicines work?
Both Viagra and Viagra Connect are brand names for a medicine, the medical name of which is sildenafil. Sildenafil works by changing blood flow in the penis during sexual stimulation. It does this by inhibiting an enzyme called phosphodiesterase 5 (PDE5 ). It is a PDE5 inhibitor.
Advantages of Viagra Connect
Men who need erectile dysfunction treatment straight away, the same day, can now go to a pharmacy for their tablets. They might need to make an appointment, and would need an in-store assessment, but potentially it is same day treatment. Dr Fox usually can provide next day delivery for orders made in the morning, but not same day.
Disadvantages of Viagra Connect
The main disadvantage is cost. Viagra Connect is a 50mg tablet of sildenafil (around £4 each), and sildenafil 50mg can be bought online for a lot less (around £1.31 each). The saving is considerable (see prices above).
If obtained online, the treatment is delivered by post with a signature required. This saves a trip to a pharmacy.
Some men may prefer not to have to have a face-to-face pharmacy assessment to obtain treatment.
Men can obtain different strengths of tablets online, not just 50mg tablets. 50mg of sildenafil is the usual starting dose, but some men require 100mg or 25mg. Dr Fox supplies 25mg, 50mg, and 100mg tablets.
Viagra Connect is available from pharmacies only in packs of 4 or 8 tablets. Greater quantities are available online, and combinations of different strengths and alternative treatments.
