How exactly does Viagra work?

Viagra is the best-known medication for erectile dysfunction. Many men are familiar with the name. However, not everyone knows exactly what the drug does in the body.

It is mainly used by men who have difficulty getting an erection or maintaining an erection long enough during sex.

At Fellos, you can obtain it without visiting a clinic. You fill in a short online intake form. A Dutch doctor will then assess your situation. If treatment is possible, you will receive a prescription. The medication will then be delivered discreetly to your home via the pharmacy.

In this blog, you can read about how Viagra works. You will discover how quickly it takes effect. We also explain how long the medication works and what you need to take into account when using it.

What happens in your body when you use Viagra?

An erection is caused by blood flow to the penis. This is due to a complex interaction of nerves, blood vessels and hormones. When (sexual) stimulation occurs, nerves send signals from the brain to the penis. This causes more blood to flow to the erectile tissue.

In some men, this process does not work as well. Viagra helps the blood vessels to relax more easily. This makes it easier for blood to flow. Research shows that factors such as age, stress, diabetes, cardiovascular disease and lifestyle can play a role in this.

The drug does not cause spontaneous erections. Sexual stimulation is still necessary. Without arousal, nothing usually happens. Viagra can therefore be seen as a support. It helps the natural process. It does not replace it.

How quickly does Viagra work after taking it?

Many men notice the effect within an hour. In general, it starts working between 30 and 60 minutes after taking it. This varies from person to person.

That is why it is usually recommended to take the drug about an hour in advance.

What you eat can have an influence. A heavy meal can sometimes slow down the absorption of the drug. Fatty foods in particular can enhance this effect.

A few simple tips that often help:

• Take Viagra on time.
• Swallow it with water.
• Avoid a large meal just before taking it.

This increases the chance that the effect will be present when you need it.

How long does Viagra work?

The effect usually lasts for several hours. For many men, this is four to six hours.

This does not mean that you will have an erection for all that time. It just means that during that period, the body responds more easily to sexual stimuli.

The exact duration varies from person to person. Age can play a role, as can health. The chosen dosage also has an influence.

A doctor can help you determine the right amount. This often produces the best results.

What factors can influence the effect?

The effect of Viagra does not only depend on the medicine itself. Daily habits also play a role.

Research has shown that alcohol can reduce the effect. The body then responds less strongly to stimuli.

A heavy meal can slow down absorption. Fatty foods in particular have this effect.

Stress also plays a role for many men. Tension can make it more difficult to get an erection.

Fatigue sometimes has the same effect. The body then responds more slowly.

Some medications can also have an influence. That is why a medical assessment is always important.

A few practical tips:

• Drink little alcohol.
• Eat lightly before taking the medication.
• Make sure you get enough rest.

Can you use Viagra safely?: Who is Viagra suitable for and who is it not suitable for?

Viagra is intended for men with erectile problems. In many cases, it can be an appropriate treatment.

However, the medication is not suitable for everyone. Research shows that some medical conditions require extra caution.

For example, specific serious heart problems or already very low blood pressure.

Certain medications can also make a combination unsafe.

That is why a doctor always assesses your health first. This is also the case at Fellos.

After the online intake, a Dutch doctor will assess your answers. Only then will a decision be made as to whether the medicine is safe for you.

Possible side effects

As with many medicines, side effects may occur. Most are mild.

Common complaints resulting from research are:

• Headache
• A red or warm face
• A blocked nose
• Heartburn

And in some cases, users may experience mild dizziness.

Not everyone experiences these side effects. Many men use the medication without any problems. Serious side effects are rare. Nevertheless, it is important to always use medication as prescribed.

At Fellos, a doctor only prescribes dosages that are considered safe.
