Can you get Viagra over the counter in Europe, and when is a prescription required?

Viagra availability explained: sildenafil regulation, pharmacy rules, online prescribing, and safety screening.

In this episode, we clarify whether Viagra (sildenafil) can be obtained without a prescription in EU countries and how erectile dysfunction (ED) medication is legally regulated.

You’ll learn:

• The difference between branded Viagra and generic sildenafil

• Which EU countries allow pharmacy supply under specific conditions

• Why medical assessment is required before prescribing

• Cardiovascular screening and contraindications (such as nitrate use)

• Risks of buying sildenafil from unregulated online sources

• When a request may be declined for safety reasons

• When ED may signal underlying cardiovascular disease

We explain how doctors assess blood pressure, heart history, current medications, and ED duration during an online consultation in the EU. Sildenafil is not suitable for everyone, and prescribing must follow established medical criteria.

This episode reflects the clinical standards used by Mobi Doctor, where each request is reviewed by a registered physician in line with EU prescribing guidance.
