I've met with my doctor about ED, I've seen him semi-annually for years, I have a prescription on auto refill--I just can't afford to pay for the refills from CVS or Walgreen's.
Is there a source to get generic Sildenafil Citrate (Viagra) online for a lower price from a reputable company?
I know there are risks involved. I know it may be a grey market issue, but I simply can't afford getting refills from the normal channels. Does anyone have a trusted source for generic Viagra online, preferably with personal experience with them? Private answers may be sent to me at no.ed.metafilter@gmail.com
My girlfriend and I both thank you.

Is there a Planned Parenthood location near you? According to the "Men's Sexual Health" section of their website, they appear to offer services dealing with ED. Worth contacting them to see if they can fill your prescription.

Viagra's still under patent, so no generics yet. However, you can expect them to hit the market as soon as the Viagra patent expires on March 27, 2012.

My doc wrote me a 100mg prescription so I could get a pill splitter and get 2 50mg doses. I just uses a cheap pill splitter bought at the same Walgreens that I got the medicine. It isn't the best consistency for cutting and if you're not careful you're 50/50 split might be 55/44 or 60/40 though.
But now that I live close to Mexico, I get generic (sold as Maxifort) down there for about ~$3.5/pill in a 10 tablet bottle (pharmacies really close to the border are more). Same effect, lower cost. The last I checked the legit online pharmacies in Mexico won't ship to the US.

The canadian pharmacy where we buy my fiancee's breathing medication is listing 32, 100Mg generic pills (they sell the indian imports, I forget the name but their cleanliness and purity standards are actually above US standards) is $199. IDK your prescription size, but if it's 50mg, that's 64 pills for $200 which seems ok to me.
I won't link to them, but I found them based on a recommendation from the green, and through interesting use of capitalization you should be able to figure it out:
Canada Pharmacy is a dot com who sells generic medications to people in the us.

A lot of big chain pharmacies have a prescription savings program with a cheap enrollment fee (Walgreens' is $20) and discounted prescriptions. I'd check into that.
