Ordering your erectile dysfunction medications online can save you both time and money. And eDrugstore.com can even set up a complimentary online consultation with a licensed U.S. doctor who can prescribe an ED drug if appropriate.

Introduction

In the hustle and bustle of 21st century life, it can be challenging to find the time needed to get all your chores and other obligations taken care of. Short-cuts and other strategies to save time can come in handy.

For men who need erectile dysfunction drugs to get and keep an erection suitable for intercourse, time must be set aside to see your doctor. Because without a doctor’s prescription, you’ll be unable to buy Viagra or any other ED drug.

On top of that, more time will be needed to travel to and from the pharmacy to get the doctor’s prescription filled. Unless you’re very lucky, you will probably have to spend some time waiting in line to drop off your prescription and again when you return to pick up the drugs themselves.

This post takes a closer look at the time you’re likely to spend seeing your doctor and then filling whatever prescription he may decide is appropriate for treating your symptoms of ED.

Let’s then look in particular at the savings in time that can be realized if you order your drugs online from a reputable supplier such as eDrugstore.com. Based in Tempe, Arizona, eDrugstore has been in business since the late 1990s and sells only FDA-approved medications, all of which are dispensed by licensed U.S. pharmacists.

Time Spent Seeing the Doctor

As previously noted, Viagra and the other ED drugs known as PDE5 inhibitors can be purchased in the United States by prescription only. And to get that prescription, you’ll have to consult a doctor.

Altarum, a Michigan-headquartered nonprofit health research and consulting institute, estimates the annual cost of accessing health care services in the United States at $89 billion. The institute arrived at this estimate by quantifying and applying an individual’s hourly wages to approximate the economic cost of time spent traveling to and from the medical professional office, as well as time spent waiting.

Based on Altarum’s findings, Americans spend an average of 34 minutes on travel and 11 minutes waiting every time they access health care services. Somewhat surprisingly, these travel and wait times have not changed significantly in recent years.

Getting That Prescription Filled

Assuming your doctor finds that you are suffering from ED and could be helped by taking Viagra or another ED drug, you’ll next have to deal with the time it will take to get that prescription filled.

In an increasing number of states around the country, doctors today wire prescriptions to their patients’ regular pharmacy, thus eliminating part of the workload the patient faces in actually getting the drug in hand. If, however, that practice is not in effect in your area, you will have to make a trip to your pharmacy to drop off the doctor’s script.

Wait times to have the prescription filled range from 10 or 15 minutes to as long as 45 minutes or an hour. Much depends upon the time of day that the prescription is dropped off. Hint: Doing it in the morning usually rewards you with the shortest waiting times of the day.

According to an article posted at Prevention.com in 2015, 15 minutes is the average time it takes to have a prescription filled. While that average time might have increased slightly over the last four years, it remains a fairly accurate indicator.

To help you budget your time, pharmacists usually offer a rough estimate of the time it will take to get your prescription ready. If it’s 15 minutes or less, you might be able to take up that time shopping around in the pharmacy or nearby. If it’s going to take a significantly longer time, you might have to go on home and return later to get your drug.

Travel time to and from the pharmacy (times two if you leave and come back later to pick up) also must be taken into consideration.

Taking Time Off from Work

When calculating the time and approximate cost of getting and filling a prescription, you should also take into consideration the cost, if any, of taking time off from your job.

While your dealings with a pharmacy can usually be handled outside the normal 9-to-5 workday hours, you’ll almost certainly need to take time off to see your doctor. Doctors’ hours usually coincide with regular work hours, and few doctors see patients over the weekend.

Depending on your position and responsibilities, your absence from work imposes some degree of inconvenience on your employer. Generally speaking, most workplaces will make accommodations to allow employees the time off they need to see their doctors, providing these absences are few and far between. Whether you will be paid for the time you take off depends to a large degree on the type of work you’re engaged in.

A More Convenient Alternative

Ordering your ED drugs online can be a big timesaver, but only if you deal with a dependable online supplier. The internet is alive with advertising for Viagra and other ED drugs at unbelievably low prices. However, the vast majority of these online suppliers deal in counterfeit medications that will put a dent in your personal finances but do nothing to help treat your ED symptoms. In many cases, they can be hazardous to your health.

One exception is eDrugstore, which is based in the United States and deals exclusively in FDA-approved medications. Its prices for Viagra, Cialis, Levitra, Staxyn, and Stendra are competitive with those of brick-and-mortar pharmacies. And so are its prices for the generic equivalents of Viagra, Cialis, Levitra, and Staxyn. Moreover, it ships out those drugs in discreet packaging with no outward indications of what the package contains.

What About a Prescription?

To order ED drugs from eDrugstore, you’ll still need a prescription. If you have one from your doctor, you can fax it or scan and email it along with your order. Alternatively, eDrugstore can set up a complimentary online consultation with a licensed U.S. physician who can authorize a prescription if appropriate. This can represent significant savings, both in terms of money and time.
