- Topical focus: Hi-Doctor prescribes topical acne treatments only (such as adapalene 0.1% + benzoyl peroxide 2.5% gel, azelaic acid 15% gel, or clindamycin/benzoyl peroxide combinations).
- Excluded from online care: Severe nodulocystic acne, conglobata, or scarring acne requiring oral isotretinoin or oral antibiotics is referred to in-person clinical care.

What Epiduo actually does
Epiduo combines two active ingredients in a fixed-dose topical gel: adapalene 0.1% (a third-generation topical retinoid) and benzoyl peroxide 2.5% (an antimicrobial and keratolytic agent). Applied once nightly, the combination normalises follicular keratinisation to prevent microcomedones while reducing Cutibacterium acnes bacterial proliferation without inducing antibiotic resistance.
Clinical evaluation benchmark: Retinoid purging and mild peeling commonly occur between weeks 2 and 6. Meaningful clinical improvement is judged at 12 weeks of continuous once-nightly application.
Please note that Hi-Doctor's formulary covers standard Epiduo (adapalene 0.1% / benzoyl peroxide 2.5%). Higher concentration formulations like Epiduo Forte (0.3% adapalene) are not available through this service.
Side effects and when to stop
Mild localised irritation is common during the initial weeks of treatment. Most patients adapt by applying a non-comedogenic moisturiser or adjusting application frequency during early stages.
- Expected initial effects: Dryness, mild erythema (redness), scaling, and a transient stinging sensation.
- Sun sensitivity: Adapalene increases photosensitivity; daily broad-spectrum sunscreen is required.
- When to discontinue: Stop use and consult a doctor if you develop severe contact dermatitis, facial swelling, blistering, or intense burning.
Why Hi-Doctor vs. walking into a clinic
