Hello,

Thanks for writing to us.

Viagra has half life of 3-4 hours and peak plasma time of 30-120 minutes. Considering this it should be taken 1 hour before sex. However it is effective even taken any time between 30-120 minutes before sex.

Hope I have answered your query, I will be happy to help further.

Regards,
Dr Chintan Solanki.
