How it works — get your consultation in 4 steps

Acquiring a prescription treatment does not require sitting in a clinic waiting room or scheduling a live video call. The entire clinical evaluation takes place online through structured, asynchronous clinical pathways.

1. Complete the medical questionnaire: Answer questions about your skin symptoms, past acne treatments, allergies, and general health.
2. Upload skin photos: Attach clear photographs of the affected areas so the doctor can assess lesion types and inflammatory severity.
3. Doctor clinical assessment: An EU-licensed doctor reviews your file within 24 hours to determine clinical suitability.
4. Receive your REMPE prescription: If approved, download your official REMPE PDF from your account inbox to present at your local pharmacy.

Who qualifies

Duac is indicated for mild to moderate inflammatory acne vulgaris presenting with papules and pustules. Because it contains a topical antibiotic, it is not suitable for every form of acne.

Hi-Doctor provides topical dermatology treatments only. Severe acne, deep nodulocystic disease, and scarring acne require in-person clinical care and physical monitoring. Hi-Doctor does not prescribe oral isotretinoin, oral antibiotics, or hormonal therapies online; patients presenting with severe symptoms are referred to local specialists.

Condition Type	Suitability for Duac	Clinical Pathway
Mild to Moderate Inflammatory Acne	Eligible	Online assessment & topical prescription if appropriate
Comedonal Acne Only (Blackheads/Whiteheads)	Alternative topical preferred	Doctor evaluates topical retinoid or azelaic acid
Nodulocystic or Scarring Acne	Ineligible online	Referred to in-person dermatology clinic
Pregnancy or Breastfeeding	Clinical caution / Alternative needed	Alternative non-antibiotic topical considered

What Duac actually does

Duac is a combination topical gel containing clindamycin 1% and benzoyl peroxide (available in 3% or 5% formulations). The two active ingredients target distinct aspects of acne pathology simultaneously.

Clindamycin is a lincosamide antibiotic that suppresses Cutibacterium acnes bacteria within the pilosebaceous unit. Benzoyl peroxide provides potent keratolytic and antimicrobial action. Crucially, the benzoyl peroxide component prevents C. acnes from developing resistance to clindamycin, which is why topical clindamycin is not prescribed as a standalone monotherapy.

Treatment is applied once nightly and is strictly capped at a 12-week continuous course to manage resistance risks. Retinoid purging does not occur with Duac, but initial dryness is common in weeks 1 to 3. Meaningful clinical change is evaluated across 8 to 12 weeks of consistent application.

Side effects and when to stop

Most patients tolerate Duac well, though localised skin reactions can occur during the first few weeks of application. Benzoyl peroxide also bleaches fabrics, towels, and hair upon contact.

• Common local reactions: Mild erythema, peeling, dryness, and a mild stinging sensation. These often subside as skin acclimates.
• When to reduce frequency: If moderate peeling or irritation develops, reduce application to alternate nights until tolerance improves.
• When to stop immediately: Discontinue use and seek urgent medical care if you experience severe contact dermatitis, facial swelling, or persistent abdominal cramps and severe diarrhoea.
