  2. Upload skin photos: Provide clear, well-lit photos of the affected areas so the doctor can accurately assess lesion type and inflammatory severity.

  4. Receive your prescription: If approved, download your official REMPE prescription PDF directly from your secure account to present at a local pharmacy in Lille or across the EU.

Who qualifies

Duac is a prescription-only topical treatment formulated for mild-to-moderate inflammatory acne vulgaris. An EU-licensed doctor evaluates each patient individually through the questionnaire and required photo submission.

Who qualifies

Eligible profiles

  • Adults with active papules, pustules, and comedones.
  • Patients requiring targeted antibacterial and comedolytic topical therapy.
  • Individuals who can provide clear diagnostic photos during the intake flow.

Out of scope

Hi-Doctor provides topical acne treatments only. Severe, nodulocystic, or scarring acne requires direct in-person evaluation. Hi-Doctor does not prescribe oral isotretinoin, oral antibiotics, or hormonal therapies online; patients presenting with severe disease are referred to in-person clinical care.

What Duac actually does

Duac combines clindamycin 1% (a lincosamide antibiotic) with benzoyl peroxide (3% or 5%). Clindamycin suppresses Cutibacterium acnes bacteria within the pilosebaceous unit, reducing inflammation. The benzoyl peroxide component acts as an oxidizing, mildly keratolytic agent that prevents the bacteria from developing clindamycin resistance. Because monotherapy drives antimicrobial resistance, clindamycin is never prescribed on its own.

Duac is applied once nightly to clean, dry skin. Treatment duration is capped at a maximum of 12 continuous weeks to limit bacterial resistance risks. Meaningful clinical improvement is judged around week 12. Unlike retinoid therapies such as adapalene, which often induce skin purging between weeks 2 and 6, Duac focuses primarily on rapid reduction of inflammatory lesions.

Side effects and when to stop

Most local reactions are mild and transient, occurring during the first few weeks of application.

  • Common reactions: Mild erythema (redness), peeling, dryness, and a localized burning or stinging sensation.
  • Precautions: Benzoyl peroxide bleaches hair, fabrics, and towels. Use non-comedogenic moisturizers to support the skin barrier.
  • When to stop: Discontinue use immediately and consult a doctor if you experience severe contact dermatitis, facial swelling, or persistent, severe abdominal cramping and diarrhoea.
