National Health Service Prescriptions for Viagra Nearly Triple in a Decade
As prescriptions for Viagra and other erectile dysfunction (ED) drugs in the UK have decreased in price and lost some of their stigma, the number of men using them has skyrocketed.

By the numbers

According to the National Health Service (NHS), in 10 years, the number of prescriptions for sildenafil citrate, the generic name for Viagra, has nearly tripled. In 2006, there were 1,042,431 prescriptions for Viagra, and in 2016 there were 2,958,199 prescriptions for Viagra.

Reasons for the increase

There are several reasons that more men are getting prescriptions for Viagra and other erectile dysfunction drugs.

  1. There’s more awareness now about how effective erectile dysfunction drugs like Viagra can be on men of all ages.
  2. The price of Viagra and other erectile dysfunction drugs has decreased.
  3. As the stigma surrounding erectile dysfunction drugs decreases, men are feeling more comfortable talking to their doctor about impotence.

The dangers of fake erectile dysfunction drugs

In addition, doctors are warning men about the dangers of buying off-prescription drugs that are fake, some of which can cause serious health problems and even death. This may play a role in more men getting legitimate prescriptions for Viagra and other erectile dysfunction drugs.

According to the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency, the equivalent of more than $22 million of unlicensed and counterfeit Viagra was seized in 2016. 

Why would men risk taking fake erectile dysfunction drugs?

Many men—especially younger men who feel that ED is a problem that only “old men” get—are too embarrassed to talk to their doctor about it.

For some millennials, they feel the pressure to perform like the men they see in porn, or they need to counteract erectile dysfunction caused by too much drugs or alcohol. For others, it’s about enhancing sexual performance; they’re using Viagra recreationally.
