Why Canadians love Maple

All the walk-in clinics are booked in my city for days. Can’t even get a phone consultation. Signed up and communicated with a doctor almost immediately. Within an hour I had a prescription waiting at my local pharmacy. Great service.

This app was very quick and helpful to me in getting the prescription that I needed... Doctors are professional and helpful, no wait time and sent prescription right to my pharmacy!

Signed up at 12:08 pm. Needed to get a prescription for an ongoing medical situation and my family doc was booked up. Had my prescription faxed to the pharmacy by 12:43 pm... Incredible.
—Apple App Store

What an amazing experience! It took me 30 mins to get everything sorted and get my prescription sent to the pharmacy! Amazing!!
—Wali, Google Play Store

For a simple prescription refill, this app was fantastic. Fast, efficient, and the Dr. was incredibly helpful. I'd pick this method vs going in person any day.

Frequently asked questions

Maple 101

Maple is a virtual care platform that connects you with doctors and other healthcare providers via text, audio, or video. After you log in to your Maple account, you can request an online consultation.

Consultations work similarly to in-person appointments — the doctor can complete an assessment by asking questions about your symptoms, going through your health history, and determining what treatment is right for you. If they think your condition is more serious, they may tell you to go to a clinic for an in-person examination.

As a Maple member, you get 24/7 access to virtual primary care online and more. You can connect with our network of providers via text, audio, or video call within minutes.

About Viagra

Viagra (sildenafil) is used to help men with erectile dysfunction (ED) by improving blood flow to the penis. This allows men to achieve and maintain an erection during sexual activity. If you’re interested in getting Viagra, you’re in luck because you don’t need to make an in-person appointment to get a prescription. With virtual healthcare platforms like Maple, you can easily talk to a doctor online, get a prescription at their discretion, and have it sent to a pharmacy near you.

Viagra is prescribed to help men who have difficulty achieving or maintaining an erection. It works by increasing blood flow to the penis, which makes it easier to get and keep an erection during sexual activity.

Not everyone can safely take Viagra. You shouldn’t take it if you:

  • Take nitrate medications like nitroglycerin
  • Use recreational drugs called “poppers” (such as amyl nitrite or butyl nitrite)
  • Are on medications like Adempas (riociguat)
  • Are allergic to sildenafil or any other ingredient in Viagra

It’s important to have an honest conversation with your doctor about your medical history before starting Viagra.

Like any medication, Viagra can cause side effects, and it’s important to be aware of them before starting treatment. While Viagra is generally safe when used as prescribed, it can still cause reactions in some people. Most side effects tend to be mild and go away on their own as your body adjusts to the medication.

However, certain side effects can persist or become bothersome, and it’s a good idea to monitor how you’re feeling once you begin taking the medication. In rare cases, Viagra can cause more serious side effects, which require immediate medical attention. If you’re ever unsure or uncomfortable with how the medication affects you, it’s best to reach out to a healthcare provider immediately.

Here are the most common side effects of Viagra:

  • Headache
  • Flushing (warmth, redness in the skin)
  • Nasal congestion
  • Dizziness
  • Vision changes
  • Mood swings

If you experience a prolonged erection lasting more than four hours (called priapism), seek medical attention immediately.

Viagra is an effective treatment for many men with ED, but it’s not suitable for everyone. Certain medications and health conditions can interact with Viagra in ways that could be harmful. For example, some drugs used to treat heart conditions or high blood pressure can cause dangerous drops in blood pressure when taken alongside Viagra. 

That’s why having an open conversation with your online specialist or doctor about your complete medical history, including any medications you’re currently taking, is important. This helps ensure that Viagra is both safe and effective for you.

You should not take Viagra if:

  • You take nitrate medications (like nitroglycerin) for heart problems
  • You use “poppers” or other recreational drugs
  • You take certain medications for blood pressure or heart issues

These combinations can lead to a sudden, dangerous drop in blood pressure. Always consult a healthcare provider before starting Viagra to ensure your safety.

To get the best results from Viagra, it’s important to follow the instructions provided by your healthcare provider. Using Viagra correctly not only ensures it works as intended but also helps reduce the risk of side effects. 

Always take the medication exactly as prescribed, and don’t be tempted to adjust the dosage on your own without speaking to a doctor first. Keep in mind that Viagra only works when you’re sexually stimulated, so it’s important to plan ahead and take the medication at the right time.

Here’s how to use Viagra safely:

  • Timing: Take Viagra 30 to 60 minutes before sexual activity
  • Dosage: Never take more than one dose within 24 hours
  • Effectiveness: Viagra typically works for up to four hours, though the exact timing can vary from person to person
  • Where to buy Viagra: In Canada, Viagra is a prescription medication and requires a medical diagnosis. You cannot buy Viagra online or over the counter without a prescription. However, with virtual care platforms like Maple, you can talk to a doctor online, who will assess your condition and write a prescription for you at their discretion.

Viagra is safe for most men when taken as prescribed. However, taking more than the recommended dose can lead to unwanted side effects like headaches, dizziness, or priapism (a painful, long-lasting erection). Always follow your doctor’s instructions, and if you have any concerns, you can talk to a primary care provider on Maple in minutes to discuss your dosage and make adjustments if needed.

If you need a dose adjustment, simply connect with a provider on Maple. They’ll review how the medication works for you and may adjust your prescription to fit your needs better. 

Yes, Viagra does expire, usually one year from the date it was dispensed or five years from the manufacturing date. Expired Viagra may not be as effective, so it’s important to check the expiration date.

If Viagra isn’t the right fit for you, don’t worry — there are other options for treating ED. Your health care provider might suggest adjusting your dosage or trying a different medication like:

  • Cialis (tadalafil): Another popular ED treatment that lasts longer
  • Levitra (vardenafil): Similar to Viagra, but works slightly faster for some men
  • Stendra (avanafil): A newer medication with a shorter onset time

Discussing these alternatives with your health care provider before making any changes to your treatment is important.

No, Viagra isn’t available over the counter in Canada. You’ll need a prescription. To see if Viagra is right for you, you’ll need to consult with a doctor, either in person or online, through a platform like Maple. Your provider will assess your condition and prescribe Viagra if it’s appropriate for you.

In Canada, only licensed healthcare providers, such as doctors or nurse practitioners, can prescribe Viagra. If you’re wondering how to get Viagra in Canada, you can get started by talking to a doctor or nurse practitioner on Maple. After an online consultation, a healthcare provider will assess whether Viagra is appropriate for you and, if so, will issue a prescription at their discretion.

  1. Viagra is only for older men: ED can affect men of all ages, and Viagra can be helpful regardless of your age, as long as a healthcare provider prescribes it
  2. Viagra works instantly: Viagra needs about 30 to 60 minutes to take effect, and sexual stimulation is required for it to work
  3. More Viagra means better results: Taking more than the recommended dose won’t improve your results and can actually increase the risk of side effects

Yes, it is possible to use health insurance for online Viagra prescriptions or refills. Most provincial health plans don’t cover Viagra as it’s considered an elective or lifestyle medication. Overall, the coverage varies depending on your insurance provider and plan benefits. In some instances, insurance may cover Viagra. You can determine if your plan includes coverage by contacting your insurance company directly.

Not necessarily. Having proof of a prior prescription may be helpful if you’re seeking a refill. But if you’re looking for a new prescription, a healthcare provider on Maple can assess your health and needs and issue a new prescription for Viagra after your online visit at their discretion.
