How it works — get your consultation in 4 steps

Getting a clinical assessment for acne is entirely asynchronous. You do not need to attend a video call or take time off work.

1. Complete the medical questionnaire: You provide details about your acne history, previous treatments, and upload clear photos of your skin.
2. Submit the 40 € consultation fee: Payment is processed securely. The 40 EUR consultation fee is refunded in full if the doctor does not issue a prescription.
3. Medical review in under 24 hours: An EU-licensed doctor evaluates your questionnaire and photographs to assess if adapalene 0.1% / benzoyl peroxide 2.5% gel is clinically suitable.
4. Receive your REMPE prescription: If approved, your downloadable PDF prescription is available immediately in your patient account and emailed to you. You can print the PDF or present it on your phone at any community pharmacy in Bray or across the EU, where the pharmacist may dispense the medication. Hi-Doctor does not sell, ship, or deliver medication.

Who qualifies

Doctors evaluate each patient individually based on clinical safety and acne severity. You may qualify for topical Epiduo if you meet the following criteria:

• Age: You are 18 years of age or older.
• Condition: You have mild to moderate comedonal or inflammatory acne (papules and pustules).
• Target areas: Acne located on the face, chest, or back suitable for topical treatment.
• Not pregnant or planning pregnancy: Adapalene is a retinoid and is strictly contraindicated during pregnancy. (Patients who are pregnant may be considered for azelaic acid 15% gel instead).

Out of clinical scope: Hi-Doctor provides topical treatments only. Severe nodulocystic acne, scarring acne, and cases requiring oral isotretinoin or oral antibiotics are referred to in-person specialist care.

What Epiduo actually does

Epiduo is a fixed-dose topical gel combining two active ingredients: adapalene 0.1% and benzoyl peroxide 2.5%. It treats acne through complementary pathways without driving antibiotic resistance.

• Adapalene (0.1%): A third-generation topical retinoid that regulates cellular turnover, prevents microcomedone formation, and reduces deep inflammation.
• Benzoyl Peroxide (2.5%): A potent antimicrobial agent that rapidly reduces Cutibacterium acnes bacteria on the skin surface and inside pores through oxidation.

Expected timeline: Retinoid purging (temporary flare of blemishes and mild flaking) frequently occurs during weeks 2 to 6 as pore blockages clear. Meaningful therapeutic change is judged at 12 weeks of consistent, once-nightly application.

Side effects and when to stop

Local irritation is common when beginning topical retinoid therapy. Most mild reactions subside as the skin builds tolerance over the first month.

• Expected initial symptoms: Mild redness, peeling, dryness, and a stinging sensation upon application. Apply a basic, non-comedogenic moisturiser 20 minutes before or after application to reduce irritation.
• Photosensitivity: Epiduo increases sensitivity to UV radiation. Apply a broad-spectrum SPF 50 sunscreen daily every morning.
• Fabric contact: Benzoyl peroxide bleaches fabrics, towels, and hair. Wash hands thoroughly after application.
• When to stop: Discontinue treatment immediately and seek urgent medical evaluation if you develop severe contact dermatitis, intense facial swelling, or signs of an allergic reaction.
