Why You Should Never Buy ‘Cheap Viagra’

The term ‘Viagra’ has become so ingrained in public discourse that it is a term given to just about anything which increases erectile potency. Natural remedies are referred to as ‘Herbal Viagra’ and, worryingly, cut-price and unregulated medications have obtained the moniker ‘Cheap Viagra’.

In recent years, the black market has become flooded with either illegal or unlicensed imitations of the popular drug, some of which are offered at a discount or a reduced price, or even as a free sample.

Kamagra is one such example. This drug, which is available to buy without a prescription in India, cannot legally be sold in the UK. However, some men in this country do manage to obtain it, but obviously do not go through the correct channels and necessary checks to make sure it is suitable for them . As a result, these patients could be putting their health at risk.

Counterfeit versions or fake Viagra are also a problem in the UK. Sometimes labelled as cheap Viagra, they are often offered at a discount or as a free sample. Manufactured in uncontrolled conditions, these versions often contain potentially harmful substances, have not been subjected to appropriate testing, and are obviously illegal.

The most important aspect of buying ED pills to consider is your safety. Most Impotence treatments are not available for free or over-the-counter in the UK for a reason; because they are not suitable for everyone.

Even when issuing Viagra Connect (which is a pharmacy medicine and not a prescription treatment), a pharmacist will have to screen the patient’s suitability by asking a few questions about their health.

If you have a history of certain medical conditions, particularly those related to the heart and arteries, then taking these sorts of treatments could be hazardous to your health, and maybe even fatal.
