About this item
Viagra is a medicine used to treat erectile dysfunction. It increases blood flow to the penis to help men get an erection. At least two-thirds of men have improved erections after taking it.

Key facts
- It usually takes 30 to 60 minutes for sildenafil to work for erectile dysfunction. You can take it up to 4 hours before you want to have sex.
- Taking sildenafil alone will not cause an erection. You need to be aroused for it to work.
- The most common side effects are headaches, feeling sick, hot flushes, and dizziness. Many men have no side effects or only mild ones.
- It can be dangerous to take sildenafil if you also take medicines called nitrates (often given for chest pain). The combination can cause a dangerous fall in your blood pressure. If you’re not sure if you’re taking a nitrate, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
- Sildenafil is called by the brand names Viagra (for erectile dysfunction) and Revatio (for pulmonary hypertension).

How much will I take for erectile dysfunction?
Sildenafil tablets for erectile dysfunction come in different strengths ranging from 25mg to 100mg.
The usual dose is 50mg when you need it (no more than once a day).
The dose can be increased to 100mg or decreased to 25mg depending on its effect.
Take sildenafil up to 4 hours before you want to have sex. For sildenafil to work properly, you’ll need to be sexually excited.
How to take it
Swallow tablets whole with a glass of water or juice (but not grapefruit juice).
For erectile dysfunction, it’s best to take sildenafil on an empty stomach. It may take longer to work if you take it with food.

Talk to your doctor if you have taken too much Viagra and you’re worried about these side effects.
