Why Don’t I Need a Prescription for Viagra Connect?

Viagra Connect is the first medication for the treatment of erectile dysfunction which will be available without a prescription.

This proposal achieved official MHRA approval on the 28th November 2017, becoming available in Spring 2018.

Viagra Connect was implemented to improve patient access to erectile dysfunction medication. Due to illegitimate online ‘pharmacies’, often selling illicit counterfeit Viagra tablets, it is hoped that Viagra Connect will improve the safety of patients, through making genuine erectile dysfunction treatment more accessible.
