Viagra Dosage.
Viagra (sildenafil) is a medication for erectile dysfunction that can help you to get and keep an erection. It works by relaxing your blood vessels and increasing the blood flow to your penis.
There are three different doses of Viagra: 25mg, 50mg, and 100mg. The normal starting dose for Viagra is 50mg, but you can switch doses with the help of a doctor if you need to.

What are the doses of Viagra?
Viagra is available in three doses in the UK. 50mg is the standard dose, 25mg is the lowest dose, and 100mg is the highest.
The dosage refers to how much of the active ingredient (sildenafil citrate) is in the tablet. 1mg is the same as 0.1g, so the amount of active ingredient in a Viagra tablet is quite small, but that’s all that’s needed for it to work safely for most men.
More about Viagra 50mg.
This is the standard starting dose of Viagra, and is usually what a doctor will recommend if you’ve never tried Viagra before. Viagra 50mg is effective and safe for most men to take, and is the most commonly-used dosage. This is also the only dose you can buy over the counter in the UK.
More about Viagra 25mg.
This is the lowest dose available. 25mg is slightly less effective than 50mg and 100mg, but has the lowest risk of side effects and interactions with other medications. A doctor may recommend this dosage if you tried Viagra 50mg and found that it worked for you, but you also had mild side effects. You may also start on this dose if you have health conditions that make higher doses less safe, such as high blood pressure, or if you’re taking medications that could interact with Viagra.
More about Viagra 100mg.
This is the highest dose of Viagra. Viagra 100mg is the most effective dosage, but it also has the greatest risk of side effects. You may want to try Viagra 100mg if the standard 50mg dose didn’t work well enough for you, but you didn’t get any serious side effects.
The maximum daily dosage of Viagra.
100mg is the maximum daily dose of Viagra. You should never take more than 100mg in one day. Even if you’re on a lower dose, you should still only take one tablet a day and talk to a doctor first before increasing your dose. Taking more Viagra than you have been prescribed can be unsafe.
You should also not combine Viagra with other erectile dysfunction medications because this can cause serious side effects.
