Who qualifies

Duac is indicated for patients presenting with mild-to-moderate inflammatory acne characterised by papules and pustules. Because clinical safety is paramount, our doctors evaluate your submitted photos to verify that topical combination therapy is safe and effective for your skin type.

Who qualifies

Severe nodulocystic acne, widespread scarring, and conditions requiring systemic intervention are out of scope. Hi-Doctor does not prescribe oral isotretinoin (Roaccutane), oral antibiotics, or hormonal therapies online; patients exhibiting severe disease are referred to in-person dermatologists.

There is zero financial risk to checking your eligibility. If the reviewing doctor determines that Duac is not clinically appropriate for your acne, you pay nothing and your 40 € fee is refunded in full.

What Duac actually does

Duac combines two active ingredients: clindamycin 1% (a lincosamide antibiotic) and benzoyl peroxide (3% or 5%). Clindamycin suppresses the proliferation of Cutibacterium acnes bacteria within the pilosebaceous unit, reducing localized inflammation.

Benzoyl peroxide provides an oxidizing antibacterial mechanism while simultaneously preventing C. acnes from developing resistance to clindamycin. Because of the antibiotic component, Duac therapy is strictly capped at a maximum duration of 12 weeks.

Medication Active Ingredients Application Frequency Maximum Course Duration
Duac Gel Clindamycin 1% + Benzoyl Peroxide (3% or 5%) Once nightly 12 weeks maximum
Epiduo Gel Adapalene 0.1% + Benzoyl Peroxide 2.5% Once nightly Ongoing maintenance
Skinoren Gel Azelaic Acid 15% Twice daily Ongoing maintenance

Skin improvement requires consistency. While initial irritation or minor purging can occur in weeks 2 through 6, meaningful therapeutic response is evaluated at the 12-week mark.

Side effects and when to stop

Common localized side effects include mild skin peeling, dryness, redness, and a stinging or burning sensation during the first few weeks. Benzoyl peroxide oxidizes fabric, so take care to avoid contact with coloured towels, pillowcases, and clothing.

Discontinue treatment and contact a healthcare provider if you develop severe contact dermatitis, facial swelling, or persistent abdominal pain with diarrhea. Always apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen daily, as active topical treatments can increase your skin's sensitivity to UV rays.
