ED Treatment Subscription from £0.36 per dose

ED Treatment Subscription: Affordable, Discreet Delivery from £0.36

Published: 17 October 2026

An ed treatment subscription offers a convenient, discreet way to manage erectile dysfunction with regular deliveries of prescription medication to your door. At Cured Pharmacy, you can access clinically proven treatments from £0.36 per dose (with code Ednew on your first order), following a simple online consultation reviewed by a UK-registered prescriber. Whether you prefer sildenafil, tadalafil, or another PDE5 inhibitor, a subscription ensures you never run out and can maintain confidence in your sexual health.

What is an ED treatment subscription and how does it work?

An ED treatment subscription is a service that delivers your erectile dysfunction medication at regular intervals—monthly, every two months, or as often as you need—without requiring you to reorder each time[1]. After your first online consultation is approved by a UK prescriber, you choose how frequently you'd like your treatment delivered, and Cured Pharmacy dispatches it in plain, discreet packaging. This model suits men who use ED medication regularly and want the convenience of automatic refills.

All erectile dysfunction medicines available on subscription at Cured Pharmacy are PDE5 inhibitors, a class of drug that helps increase blood flow to the penis when you're sexually aroused[2]. They include sildenafil (generic Viagra), tadalafil (generic Cialis), vardenafil (generic Levitra), and avanafil (Spedra), as well as branded versions such as Viagra and Cialis. Each works slightly differently in terms of onset and duration, so your prescriber will help you choose the option that fits your lifestyle and health profile.

Because these are prescription-only medicines, every new patient completes a confidential health questionnaire covering medical history, current medications, and any conditions that might make a PDE5 inhibitor unsuitable[2]. A UK-registered prescriber reviews your answers before approving the prescription. Once approved, you can set up a subscription and adjust the frequency, pause, or cancel at any time through your online account.

Strengths and formulations available on subscription

Sildenafil is available in 25 mg, 50 mg, and 100 mg tablets[3]. The usual starting dose is 50 mg, taken about one hour before sexual activity, with a maximum of one dose per day. If 50 mg is too strong or causes side effects, your prescriber may suggest 25 mg; if it's not effective enough, they may increase it to 100 mg. Sildenafil typically works for four to six hours.

Tadalafil comes in two dosing regimens: on-demand (10 mg or 20 mg taken at least 30 minutes before sex) and daily (2.5 mg or 5 mg taken once a day, regardless of when you plan to have sex)[4]. The on-demand doses can remain effective for up to 36 hours, earning tadalafil the nickname 'the weekend pill.' Daily tadalafil suits men who prefer spontaneity and have sex more than twice a week.

Vardenafil is supplied as 5 mg, 10 mg, or 20 mg tablets, usually taken 25 to 60 minutes before intercourse, and lasts around four to five hours[5]. Avanafil (Spedra) is available in 50 mg, 100 mg, and 200 mg strengths and is the fastest-acting PDE5 inhibitor, often working within 15 to 30 minutes[6][11]. Your prescriber will recommend a starting strength based on your age, other medicines, and any underlying health conditions, and you can adjust it over time if needed.

Branded versus generic options

Generic medicines contain the same active ingredient, strength, and formulation as the branded version and meet identical regulatory standards[12]. At Cured Pharmacy, generic sildenafil starts from £0.36 per dose (first order with code Ednew), while branded Viagra costs £30.36 for a first order. Generic tadalafil is priced from £6.36 (first order), compared with £9.60 for branded Cialis. Both generics and branded products are equally effective; the choice often comes down to personal preference and budget.

ED treatment subscription pricing: what affects the cost?

The price of your subscription depends on the medicine you choose, the strength, and the quantity per delivery. Sildenafil is the most affordable option, starting at £0.45 per tablet (£0.36 with code Ednew on your first order). Tadalafil begins at £7.95 (£6.36 first order), while vardenafil and avanafil are priced higher due to manufacturing and licensing costs. Branded Viagra and Cialis carry a premium over their generic equivalents but offer the same clinical benefit.

Larger pack sizes often reduce the per-tablet cost, so ordering a three-month supply can be more economical than monthly deliveries. Cured Pharmacy displays transparent pricing on every product page, with no hidden consultation fees or subscription charges—you pay only for the medication itself. The 20% discount code Ednew applies to your first order, making it easier to try a treatment at a lower cost before committing to a regular subscription.

Your prescriber may start you on a lower strength and adjust upwards if needed, which can also affect the overall price. For example, if 50 mg sildenafil works well for you, there's no need to pay for the 100 mg dose. Always discuss efficacy and side effects during follow-up consultations so your prescription remains both effective and cost-efficient.

How to order an ED treatment subscription safely online

Start by completing the online consultation on the Cured Pharmacy website. You'll answer questions about your general health, cardiovascular history, current medications (including over-the-counter and herbal products), and any previous experience with ED treatments[2]. Be thorough and honest: the prescriber needs accurate information to assess whether a PDE5 inhibitor is safe for you and to check for drug interactions.

A UK-registered prescriber reviews every consultation, usually within a few hours. If approved, you'll receive a message confirming your prescription and inviting you to choose your delivery frequency—options typically include every four, eight, or twelve weeks. Your first order is dispatched from the GPhC-registered pharmacy in plain packaging with no external branding, and subsequent deliveries follow the same schedule until you pause or cancel.

You can log in to your account at any time to change the delivery date, update your address, or request a different strength. If your health changes—for example, you start a new medicine or develop a heart condition—contact the pharmacy immediately. A prescriber will review the update and may adjust or stop your prescription if it's no longer safe. Never share your ED medication with others, and do not take more than the prescribed dose.

What happens during the online consultation?

The consultation asks about conditions that can make PDE5 inhibitors unsuitable, such as recent heart attack or stroke, severe heart failure, very low blood pressure, or a history of sudden vision loss (NAION)[2][3]. You'll also list all current medicines, because some—such as nitrates, nicorandil, riociguat, and poppers—must never be combined with ED treatments due to the risk of a dangerous drop in blood pressure[3][4]. The prescriber checks every interaction and contraindication before approving your prescription, ensuring your safety.

Comparing ED treatment subscription options at Cured Pharmacy

Choosing the right treatment depends on how often you have sex, how quickly you want the medicine to work, and how long you want the effect to last. Sildenafil and vardenafil are ideal for planned sexual activity, with sildenafil taking about an hour to work and lasting four to six hours, and vardenafil acting in 25 to 60 minutes for a similar duration[3][5]. Both require sexual stimulation to be effective and should be taken on an empty stomach or after a light meal for best results.

Tadalafil offers more flexibility: the on-demand 10 mg or 20 mg dose can last up to 36 hours, so you don't need to time it as precisely, while the daily 2.5 mg or 5 mg option means the medicine is always in your system, allowing complete spontaneity[4]. Avanafil (Spedra) is the fastest-acting choice, often working within 15 to 30 minutes, which suits men who prefer minimal planning[6][11]. All four medicines have similar side-effect profiles—headache, flushing, indigestion, and nasal congestion are the most common—but individual responses vary.

Your prescriber will recommend a starting treatment based on your answers, but you can request a different option during follow-up if the first choice doesn't suit you. Many men try more than one PDE5 inhibitor before finding their preferred option, and switching between treatments on a subscription is straightforward through your online account.

Important safety information for ED treatment subscriptions

Never take a PDE5 inhibitor if you use nitrates (such as GTN spray, isosorbide mononitrate, or isosorbide dinitrate), nicorandil, riociguat, or recreational drugs known as poppers (amyl or alkyl nitrites)[3][4]. Combining these with sildenafil, tadalafil, vardenafil, or avanafil can cause a severe and potentially life-threatening fall in blood pressure. Do not take two different ED medicines at the same time, and always wait at least 24 hours (or 48 hours for tadalafil) before taking another dose.

If you take alpha-blockers for prostate symptoms or high blood pressure (such as doxazosin, tamsulosin, or alfuzosin), tell your prescriber: you may need a lower starting dose of the PDE5 inhibitor to avoid dizziness or fainting[3][4]. Medicines that affect liver enzymes—such as ritonavir, cobicistat, ketoconazole, itraconazole, clarithromycin, rifampicin, carbamazepine, phenytoin, and St John's wort—can alter how your body processes ED treatments, so dose adjustments or alternative options may be necessary[3][4][5][6].

Seek urgent medical help if you experience an erection lasting more than four hours (priapism), sudden loss of vision or hearing, or chest pain during sex[3][4]. These are rare but serious side effects. If you have new or worsening erectile dysfunction, see your GP: ED can be an early warning sign of cardiovascular disease or diabetes, and treating the underlying cause may improve your symptoms[1][2]. A subscription is convenient, but it should complement—not replace—regular health check-ups.

Lifestyle factors that support ED treatment

PDE5 inhibitors work best when combined with a healthy lifestyle[2]. Regular exercise, a balanced diet, maintaining a healthy weight, limiting alcohol, and stopping smoking all improve blood flow and can enhance the effectiveness of ED medication[1][10]. Heavy alcohol intake can worsen erectile dysfunction and increase the risk of side effects such as dizziness. Psychological factors—stress, anxiety, and relationship issues—also play a role, and some men benefit from talking therapy alongside medication[2]. Your GP or a sexual health specialist can provide referrals if needed.
