Yes, you can get a private medical consultation for Fosfomycin from an EU-licensed doctor online, right here in Galway. Hi-Doctor provides a fast, secure, and convenient way for adults in the EU to be assessed for uncomplicated urinary tract infections (UTIs) and potentially receive a Fosfomycin prescription. The process is straightforward: a €35 online consultation, a prescription in under 24 hours if appropriate, and the ability to collect your medication at an EU pharmacy.

How it works — get your consultation in 4 steps

  1. Fill the online medical questionnaire and securely pay the €35 consultation fee.
  2. A licensed EU doctor reviews your case in private. If the doctor determines the treatment is NOT appropriate for you, your fee is refunded automatically — there's no risk.
  3. If approved, you receive a REMPE electronic prescription (a downloadable PDF file) in your secure Hi-Doctor account, with an email notification, within 24 hours.
  4. Print the PDF or show it on your phone — present it at any pharmacy in the EU. Pharmacists may dispense a locally-marketed equivalent, but retain the right to refuse.

Who qualifies for treatment

Hi-Doctor's EU-licensed doctors consider Fosfomycin specifically for uncomplicated urinary tract infections (acute cystitis) in eligible adult patients. The doctor looks for typical symptoms such as painful urination, frequent urination, and a persistent urge to urinate. During the private medical questionnaire, the doctor assesses your medical history and current symptoms to ensure Fosfomycin is safe and appropriate for your specific case. The doctor rules out conditions like complicated UTIs, kidney infections (pyelonephritis), male UTIs, or STIs with similar symptoms.

What Fosfomycin actually does (and doesn't do)

Fosfomycin is an antibiotic that kills bacteria in the urinary tract, specifically those commonly responsible for bladder infections. It is typically prescribed as a single-dose treatment. Patients often experience symptom relief within 1-3 days after taking the medication. Fosfomycin is not effective against viral infections or other types of infections beyond uncomplicated bacterial cystitis. It should not be used for chronic UTIs or as a preventative measure without a specific medical diagnosis.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Fosfomycin can cause side effects, though not everyone experiences them. Common side effects may include nausea, diarrhoea, headache, or dizziness. If you experience severe allergic reactions (e.g., rash, itching, swelling, severe dizziness, trouble breathing), persistent severe diarrhoea, or any other concerning or worsening symptoms, seek immediate medical attention. Always stop taking the medication and follow your doctor's instructions. Read the patient information leaflet.
