Are Erectile Dysfunction (ED) medicines available through the repeat prescription NHS service?
ED medications such as Sildenafil Citrate, Tadalafil and Vardenafil are available for some men through the repeat prescription NHS service, but under certain conditions.
Getting ED meds actually depends on the definition of “getting treated on the NHS”. For example, Viagra is the brand name product of Pfizer, which is unavailable on the NHS prescription. A patient can only buy it through a private prescription. A GP surgery will charge you a fee for providing a private prescription for buying Viagra.
However, the generic version Sildenafil is available for treating Erectile Dysfunction through the repeat prescription NHS service. The Health Department of UK has made Sildenafil available from 2014, but only after consulting a GMC registered GP practice.
Remember that Sildenafil, through NHS, is not available to every man with Erectile Dysfunction (ED). Only some men with certain underlying medical conditions are entitled to get Sildenafil via the repeat prescription NHS service. The medical conditions include diabetes, spina bifida, polio, prostate cancer, Parkinson’s disease and multiple sclerosis.
Men with the aforementioned medical problems are entitled to buy Sildenafil on the NHS prescription. Sildenafil is also made available for men with the history of surgical interventions such as prostatectomy, kidney transplant and haemodialysis.
Please note that the amount of Sildenafil prescribed through the repeat prescription NHS service is just four pills a month. Your GP practice will monitor your usage of Sildenafil and the rate of efficacy after the usage.
The most convenient and easy way for an impotent man, who is not entitled to Sildenafil on the NHS, is to buy it online through a private prescription. This can enable a man to maintain complete privacy and save him from frequent trips to the pharmacy.
One of the options from where a man can get Viagra online is PharmaDoctor, a UK’s registered online GP service. A registered online pharmacy, Pharmacy Outlet, offers Viagra pills if you get your prescription from the PharmaDoctor.
Based in Camberley, Surrey, Pharmacy Outlet is owned and managed by the Pharmacentric Limited. Call 03333 222 400 to get more information on the repeat prescription NHS service and the private prescription service.
