How to get sildenafil without insurance?
Ask About Generic Options
Generic medications are just as effective as their brand counterparts and are often much less expensive. Chat with your health care provider to see if you can switch to a generic option if you are prescribed a brand version of your medication.
If you are currently prescribed Viagra, ask your health care provider about switching to the generic Viagra option, sildenafil. The cost of sildenafil and its brand versions, Viagra and Revatio, varies in price by pharmacy and location.
Check Pharmacy Prices

Can you buy sildenafil over the counter?
You must have a current prescription from your health care provider in order to get sildenafil from your pharmacy.

However, there are plenty of virtual telehealth options available online where you can speak directly with a health care provider.
A health care provider can review your symptoms and medical history to determine if your health meets the requirement for a refill or new prescription of sildenafil.
If you are looking to refill a previous sildenafil prescription and do not have authorization from your healthcare provider, check with your pharmacist as many states are allowing emergency refills of essential medications during this time.
What conditions does sildenafil treat?
Sildenafil is used for patients to treat:
- Erectile dysfunction
- Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
How does sildenafil work?
Sildenafil belongs to a group of medicines called PDE5 inhibitors or phosphodiesterase 5.
Sildenafil is part of a group of medications called leukotriene receptor antagonists. The medication works by preventing PDE5 inhibitors from working too quickly and allowing an erection to last longer.
Sildenafil is sometimes prescribed in both men and women for symptoms of pulmonary arterial hypertension. This condition is a form of high blood pressure and sildenafil helps to relax enzymes in the lungs from overworking.
Sildenafil is available in the following dosage forms:
- Tablet
- Powder for Suspension
Your health care provider will recommend the appropriate dosage and maintenance schedule based on your health care needs.
Be sure to check with your doctor directly with any questions related to your health and medication.
Always Check RxSaver Before Filling a Prescription
