What Is Generic Viagra?

Generic Viagra is a medication used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED) in men. It contains the same active ingredient, sildenafil citrate, as the brand-name Viagra but is usually sold at a lower cost. Generic Viagra helps increase blood flow to the penis, enabling a man to achieve and maintain an erection sufficient for sexual activity.
