What is Kamagra?
Kamagra is sold as a treatment for erectile dysfunction (ED). It is manufactured in India and often sold online without a prescription. Many men buy Kamagra exported from India because they see it as a cheaper alternative to Viagra, Cialis or Levitra.
But whatever condition or type of treatment we are talking about, taking a prescription-only drug without a prescription comes with a lot of potential risks. You should only take prescription drugs – whether for ED or other conditions – after being advised to do so by a doctor. So although Kamagra may be allegedly similar to Viagra.
In this article we will learn in detail about Kamagra, whether it is safe and where you should go for safe erectile dysfunction treatment.
What is the difference between Kamagra and Viagra?
Kamagra is said to contain the same active ingredient as Viagra – sildenafil citrate. However, since Kamagra is not legal in the UK, you will only be able to get it through illegal websites. These sites may sell you a fake and potentially dangerous drug that actually bears little resemblance to Viagra.
Is Kamagra safe?
Kamagra is potentially very dangerous if taken without a prescription. What is perfectly safe and suitable for one person is not necessarily the same for someone else. People have different medical conditions, take different treatments and have different lifestyles, so you cannot say that a particular medicine is perfectly suitable for someone unless it has been evaluated by a doctor.
Also, if a website or organization is willing to sell you Kamagra without a prescription, they will have no qualms about selling you counterfeit medicines. Buying from unregulated, fake websites is a huge risk – because you cannot know what is in the medicines you are buying.
So even though it is tempting to buy Viagra, Kamagra or any other erectile dysfunction treatment from a cheap online source without a prescription, it is really not worth doing so. The medication may not be suitable for you and if it is not from a properly regulated online pharmacy, it may actually contain anything.
This does not mean that all websites selling ED medications are doing so illegally or without a prescription. In fact, websites such as LloydsPharmacy Online Doctor provide ED treatment in a completely legal and safe way, with the added benefit of being more convenient and discreet than visiting a GP.
When you order a prescription medication from a legal and accredited website such as ours, you will be asked to fill out a medical questionnaire through which the doctor will assess your suitability for the medication.
What legal alternatives to Kamagra are there?
Kamagra is believed to contain the same active ingredient as Viagra – sildenafil citrate.
The ED treatment sildenafil (which is the generic (unbranded) and therefore cheaper version of Viagra) also contains sildenafil citrate, and works in a similar way to Viagra.
Other prescription-only erectile dysfunction medicines that are legal in the US, UK include:
- Spedra
- Cialis
- Tadalafil
- Levitra
- Vardenafil
- Vitaros
All these ED medicines work in roughly the same way: they relax blood vessels in the penis, making it easier for blood to flow to the penis when aroused.
Can I treat ED without medicine?
Often, yes, but this will depend on the cause of your ED.
Medical causes of ED can include:
- High cholesterol,
- High blood pressure
- Heart disease and heart problems
- Obesity
Therefore, lifestyle changes and other prescription medications that help deal with these problems may also help with ED. For example, eating healthy food, exercising regularly and stopping smoking can reduce high cholesterol, high blood pressure and obesity.
ED can also be caused by psychological problems such as stress and anxiety. Counselling can often alleviate these problems, and therefore help with ED.
However, even with both lifestyle changes and counselling it can often take a long time to see any changes. Many men use prescription ED medications such as Viagra or Cialis to help in the short term. But remember, these medications must be both safe and legal, so don’t go back to those dubious Kamagra websites.
Legal erectile dysfunction medications are now much cheaper than before, so there should be less incentive for men to visit illegal and dangerous sites. If you do decide to buy medications online, make sure you buy from a UK website that is registered with the Care Quality Commission.
