Many people are not comfortable with buying generics online. But if you buy generics either online or at your local pharmacy, you can save a whole lot of money. It is smart to be leery of some of these online pharmacies because there are some out there that are not honorable. The sites that I purchase my generic Viagra from have been outstanding. Their drugs have always worked and I've never had an issue with shipping or service.



If you're like me then you would probably rather go to the local pharmacy. But if you live in the US, you can only get brand name Pfizer Viagra at the pharmacy. And Pfizer Viagra is not cheap. The pills go for around $10.00 each. I've seen prices for generic Viagra on the web for $1.55 per pill. Some sites are even cheaper than that. But guess what, there is no generic version approved in the US. Too bad for US customers, but not so bad for Pfizer.

If you've done much surfing on the web looking up Viagra information, then I'm sure you have read the following. "There is no such thing as generic Viagra. Generic Viagra is illegal. Generic Viagra is unsafe and produced in unsanitary conditions." Don't believe the hype! Given that it is purchased from a reputable source, generic Viagra is just as effective as brand name. I'm not telling you this because I've read it somewhere. I'm telling you this because I've experienced it myself, firsthand. I've tried brand name Viagra and it works great. I've also tried generic Viagra from several online pharmacies and they worked just as great.

As far as safety is concerned, the generic Viagra that I've experienced gave me pretty much the same side effects as brand name Viagra. You know, the flushed face and stuffy nose. Now I can't vouch for the safety of any drug. Drugs affect different people in different ways. But I will say this. I haven't seen a case where generic Viagra purchased from any of the sources that I purchase from has done anyone harm.

Do some research of your own. Check out the websites of some major pharmaceutical companies that produce generic Viagra "Sildenafil Citrate". These include Cipla, Cooper Pharma, Zydus Alidac, and others. These companies are regulated by the World Health Organization, the United Nations specialized agency for health. They do not fall under the jurisdiction of the US Food and Drug Administration, as they are not based in the United States. So they are completely within their right to produce the drug Sildenafil Citrate.

The confusion over generic Viagra being legal is far from settled. Pfizer has many lawsuits pending over this matter. Microsoft and Pfizer even have a lawsuit pending concerning spam Viagra emails. These emails are annoying but it is hard to enforce rules to stop them. One thing is for sure; Since Pfizer released Viagra in 1998, much money has been made on the sale of this drug, brand name and generic.

The positive thing about this situation is that men with erectile dysfunction can benefit from this wonder drug. Those who have insurance plans that cover most of the costs of Viagra will probably continue to make their purchases at their local pharmacy. And I don't blame them. But for those of us who don't the world wide web is just a click away for some great deals on generic Viagra online.
