Question 9

i have glanzmann thrombasthenia and i was wondering if using viagra is safe for ed?

Accepted Answer

: I don't think your bleeding disorder would prohibit the use of viagra, but do you really think you truly need it for ED at your age? Have you considered being evaluated and advised at a men's sexual health clinic or by a urologist?  I recommend that you do so.

Question 10

i need a prescription for viagra due to 6 months of ed.

Accepted Answer

Not on this forum: Erectile dysfunction medications such as Viagra are not on the HealthTap formulary. That means a patient would not be able to get a prescription for drugs like Viagra or Cialis via a virtual consultation with a doctor on HealthTap PRIME (our primary care virtual medicine service). One's in-person primary care doctor should be able to help with an ED problem, such as finding out "why" there is ED.
