Melts on your tongue1:

For convenient use. Can be taken with or without water. With a dry finger place an orodispersible film on your tongue, let it disintegrate, and it can start to work in as little as 25 minutes1.

Discreet and convenient

Comes in a convenient foil wrapper that is easy to carry in your pocket or wallet.

Fresh mint taste1:

Viagra Connect® 50 mg orodispersible films have been specially designed with a fresh mint taste1 for fresh mint breath for those intimate moments.

Technological advancement2:

Each Viagra Connect 50 mg orodispersible film is a very thin film, about as thin as a strand of hair. The advanced technology allows the film to quickly disintegrate on your tongue, allowing the saliva containing the active ingredient to be easily swallowed2.

The films are a non-tablet format that can be taken with or without water. For your busy lifestyle, the foil wrapper offers discreet ease of use.
