Sildenafil, also called generic viagra, is one of the most popular oral medication treatments for erectile dysfunction (ED). And ED is common—it affects millions of Canadian men.
So how do you get sildenafil in Canada?
We’ve got you covered.
Sildenafil is a prescription medication, so there is a carefully regulated process that’s in place to keep you safe. Traditionally, you would go to your doctor to get a prescription for Viagra. But ED can be an embarrassing topic for some men, which may keep them from talking to their doctor. That’s why some men with ED don’t get treatment.
Online men’s health clinics, like Essential Clinic, have increased access to these critical medications. We make it possible for guys to get viagra and generic viagra online in Canada. We do that by providing men with convenient online visits with qualified medical professionals, who can provide prescriptions if sildenafil is an appropriate treatment. Then, we also provide access to a licensed Canadian pharmacy where you can order the medication and get it shipped to your door.
This article explains everything you need to know about how to get generic viagra in Canada, including getting your prescription and ordering it legally online.
Sildenafil is an oral prescription drug that’s primarily used as an ED treatment. Its active ingredient is sildenafil citrate. It’s a prescription medication that was approved by Health Canada for use in Canada in the 1990s, originally with the brand name Viagra (manufactured by Pfizer).
Since the 2000s, other manufacturers have created generic versions of the drug called simply “sildenafil”. Generic drugs are just as effective as brand-name drugs because Health Canada requires that they prove pharmaceutical equivalence before they are approved. That means that sildenafil has the same medical efficacy as Viagra while being much less expensive.
Sildenafil works by dilating blood vessels and increasing blood flow to penile tissue. That enables the penis to more easily fill with blood and become rigid during sexual activity. It doesn’t cause erections in the absence of sexual stimulation.
Sildenafil and brand name Viagra pills are both considered effective and safe for most men. However, some men experience side effects that can occasionally be serious. To maximize your safety, make sure you always take sildenafil with a prescription and under the guidance of a qualified medical professional. Always read the Viagra information on the package insert and seek medical advice if you experience side effects.

Do you need a prescription for sildenafil? Is the prescription part mandatory?

It’s really important to consult with a medical professional before taking generic sildenafil or Viagra. This is to ensure that it’s the right medication for your symptoms and circumstances, that it won’t cause dangerous drug interactions with your other medications, that you’re given the right dose, and that you understand how to avoid side effects. The prescription helps ensure that you get the right treatment and helps you stay safe.
Drugs that you can buy legally without a prescription are sometimes called “over the counter” medications.
Why is sildenafil not over the counter?
Safety. Requiring a prescription helps ensure you use it safely and that only people with diagnosed erectile dysfunction use this medication.
Yes.
While you do need a prescription from a health professional, like a doctor, you do not need to physically go to the doctor to get that prescription. That’s the benefit of online clinics: You can consult with a qualified health professional right from your home.
