Viagra Connect® as a treatment for Erectile Dysfunction

Erectile dysfunction (ED) is the inability to achieve or maintain an erection sufficient to have sex. For more information on Erectile Dysfunction Erection problems can put a strain on relationships. They can also be a warning sign of a health condition or disease you might not be aware of. That’s why it’s important to take action and find a solution for your ED.

Viagra Connect® relaxes the blood vessels of the penis so more blood can flow into it. That means you can get an erection when you’re sexually aroused. After sex, your erection will go away as it would normally.

Viagra Connect® is quickly absorbed – it takes 30–60 minutes to work. Do not take more than 1 tablet a day.

When you take it with a meal that has a lot of fat in it, like a burger and chips, your body will take longer to absorb Viagra Connect®.
