Boots to sell Viagra on UK high streets

Boots is giving British men with erection problems a Valentine’s Day lift this year - offering Viagra for sale on the high street for the first time.

From February 14, customers at selected branches of the chemists will be able to buy the impotence drug without having to get a doctor’s prescription first.

In a trial scheme, the company will offer men aged 30 to 65 a consultation with a pharmacist and a pack of four tablets for £50.

Customers will have to give a medical history and have their blood pressure, cholesterol and glucose levels tested in order to ensure they are suitable for the pills.
