Always consult your doctor before starting any medication, including generic Viagra. They can assess your health and determine if it’s safe for you. Your doctor will also advise on the correct dosage.
Legality and Sourcing
Generic Viagra (sildenafil) is legal in Ireland with a valid prescription. You must obtain it from a registered pharmacy, either online or in person. Be wary of unregulated online pharmacies; verify their legitimacy before ordering. Check for a registered pharmacist’s details and a physical address in Ireland. Using unlicensed suppliers carries significant health risks.
Cost Considerations
Generic Viagra is generally cheaper than branded Viagra. The price can vary depending on the pharmacy and dosage. Comparing prices from different registered pharmacies is advisable to find the best value. Consider factors like delivery costs when comparing overall expense.
Potential Side Effects
Common side effects include headaches, facial flushing, and indigestion. Less common but serious side effects include vision changes and prolonged erections (priapism). Seek immediate medical attention if you experience these severe side effects. Your doctor can discuss potential side effects and how to manage them.
Interactions with Other Medications
Generic Viagra can interact with certain medications, particularly nitrates. Inform your doctor about all medications you are taking, including over-the-counter drugs and supplements, to avoid dangerous interactions. This is vital for safe medication use.
Storage and Disposal
Store your medication in a cool, dry place, away from children and pets. Dispose of unused medication responsibly, following your pharmacist’s instructions or your local council’s guidelines for safe pharmaceutical waste disposal.
