Who qualifies for Duac online in Córdoba
Duac is a prescription-only topical medicine formulated for mild-to-moderate inflammatory acne vulgaris. It is clinically indicated when comedones, papules, and pustules are present together.

- Eligible candidates: Adults with active inflammatory acne lesions who have not responded adequately to single-agent topical washes or over-the-counter benzoyl peroxide alone.
- In-person referrals (Out of Scope): Severe nodular, cystic, or scarring acne requires physical assessment and is not treated online. Hi-Doctor does not prescribe oral isotretinoin (Roaccutane) or oral antibiotics online and refers severe cases to local clinics.
- Contraindications: Patients with hypersensitivity to clindamycin, lincomycin, or benzoyl peroxide, or a personal history of regional enteritis, ulcerative colitis, or antibiotic-associated colitis cannot safely use Duac.
What Duac actually does
Duac gel combines two active ingredients: clindamycin 1% (a lincosamide antibiotic) and benzoyl peroxide (3% or 5%). Clindamycin inhibits protein synthesis in Cutibacterium acnes, rapidly suppressing bacterial proliferation and reducing inflammation. Benzoyl peroxide provides potent bactericidal action via free radicals while simultaneously shedding dead skin cells (keratolytic action).
The addition of benzoyl peroxide is critical: it prevents C. acnes from developing resistance to clindamycin. Because of resistance risks, clindamycin is never prescribed alone, and Duac therapy is strictly capped at a maximum 12-week continuous course.
| Treatment Feature | Duac Gel (Clindamycin + Benzoyl Peroxide) | Epiduo Gel (Adapalene + Benzoyl Peroxide) | Skinoren (Azelaic Acid 15%) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary Mechanism | Antibacterial + anti-inflammatory | Retinoid comedolytic + antibacterial | Comedolytic + anti-redness + antibacterial |
| Standard Application | Once nightly | Once nightly | Twice daily |
| Course Duration | Capped at 12 weeks | Ongoing maintenance | Ongoing maintenance |
| Pregnancy Safe | Doctor assessment required | Contraindicated | Preferred option |
| Purging Potential | Low | Moderate to high (weeks 2–6) | Low |
Side effects and when to stop
Most patients experience mild local reactions during the first two weeks of applying Duac. You can minimise irritation by applying a thin layer once daily at night and using an oil-free, non-comedogenic moisturiser.
- Expected mild reactions: Dryness, mild peeling, temporary erythema (redness), and mild stinging. Duac bleaches fabrics, hair, and towels upon contact.
- Sun sensitivity: Benzoyl peroxide increases photosensitivity. Use broad-spectrum SPF 30+ daily while living in or visiting sunny regions like Córdoba.
- When to stop immediately: Discontinue use and seek urgent medical care if you develop severe contact dermatitis, swelling of the face or throat, or persistent abdominal cramps with severe watery or bloody diarrhoea (symptoms of pseudomembranous colitis).
