VIAGRA is a prescription medication designed to help men maintain an erection when the penis is stimulated. It works by increasing blood flow to the penis- and with sexual stimulation- results in an erection. Patients must be aware that they will not get an erection by simply taking a VIAGRA pill. It is designed to improve the ability for men to have an erection only.

Manufacturer:
Pfizer

Directions:
Did you know VIAGRA has proven results for 80% of men who have taken it?

Take VIAGRA exactly as prescribed by your healthcare professional. They will decide the correct dose for each patient, depending on their condition and response. It is recommended to take your daily dose of VIAGRA approximately one hour before you intend to have sex. Swallow the tablet whole with a full glass of water. Do not take more than one dose daily because this greatly increases the risks of severely low blood pressure.

It may take time to see the effects of VIAGRA as it varies from person to person, but it normally takes between 30 minutes to 1 hour. Patients may notice the medication takes longer to work after a heavy meal. VIAGRA works faster when you take it on an empty stomach.
