Yes, you can buy Viagra over the counter at Boots. The popular UK pharmacy chain has announced that it will start selling its own-brand Viagra to help those experiencing erectile problems.
Viagra Connect, the first over-the-counter erectile dysfunction medication, is available at Boots pharmacies. Starting from March 27, 2018, it was available exclusively at Boots, both in pharmacy and online, for a two-week period before being made available at wider pharmacies.
In addition to Viagra Connect, Boots also sells its own-brand Viagra, called Sildenafil. This medication is available over the counter at Boots outlets, making the drug more accessible to men with erectile dysfunction.
To purchase Sildenafil, customers need to consult with a Boots pharmacist at the pharmacy counter. This consultation process ensures that the medication is suitable for the individual and allows the pharmacist to provide necessary information and support.
Pharmacists at Boots play a crucial role in determining whether Viagra Connect or Sildenafil is appropriate for customers. They will ask a series of questions to evaluate the suitability of the medication and, if it is not right for the customer, will recommend other options for addressing erectile dysfunction.
Sildenafil is the generic name for Viagra and is the active ingredient in both Viagra Connect and Boots' own-brand Sildenafil.
It helps relax blood vessels and increase blood flow to the genitals, addressing the primary cause of erectile dysfunction.
Sildenafil was originally manufactured in 1989 by the pharmaceutical company Pfizer, who discovered the unexpected side effect of treating erectile dysfunction while seeking a treatment for heart-related chest pain. It was approved for medical use in the EU and the US in 1998.
Boots has experienced a sales uplift thanks to its new erectile dysfunction treatment, Sildenafil. Sales at its retail healthcare arm, which includes over-the-counter medicines and treatments, were up almost 14% in the three months to the end of August. This demonstrates the popularity and demand for over-the-counter Viagra options at Boots pharmacies.
