Frequently asked questions
-
What’s the difference between generic and branded treatments?
Some treatments can be sold as either branded medication (Viagra or Cialis) or generic medications (Sildenafil or Tadalafil). If the active ingredient and the dosage are the same, the treatments will have the same effect and work in the same way. Generic treatments tend to be more cost effective.
-
What’s the difference in strength between prescription-only and non-prescription ED treatments?
The active ingredients in non-prescription treatments such as, Viagra Connect or Aronix are the same as prescription treatments such as, Viagra or Sildenafil.
The only difference is that prescription treatments come in different dosages, whereas Viagra Connect and Aronix only come in 50mg tablets.
Having the option of different strengths means treatment is customised to you and your body.
