How to Buy Viagra Online

All that stands between a man's impotence problems and revived virility is a credit card, an Internet pharmacy, and a subtly packaged delivery of those famous blue, diamond-shaped pills--right? Not so fast. If you buy Viagra online or by mail order without taking precautions, you could end up with fake pills that aren't effective--or safe.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

1. See your doctor first to evaluate possible causes for impotency, check your overall health, assess Viagra's suitability in your case, rule out medication conflicts, and make sure you're fit for sex. The two of you will discuss possible side effects.
2. Go to a U.S.-based online pharmacy certified by the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy (NABP) program and bearing the Verified Internet Pharmacy Practice Sites (VIPPS) trademark. VIPPS-designated sites are safe because they won't diagnose online, honor the right to privacy, follow a quality assurance policy and let you talk directly with a pharmacist.
3. Get assurance of the drug's authenticity, precise dosage instructions and a list of possible side effects.

What to Look For:

• Your doctor's supervision
• Online pharmacies with NABP and VIPPS approval
• Assurance of drug authenticity
• Precise dosage instructions

Tips & Warnings

• Avoid herbal products that claim to function like Viagra. They aren't subjected to quality control or scientific rigor like prescription drugs, so there's no way to know what (or how much of it) you're getting, or if it works.
