If you are looking to get Soolantra online in Hamburg, you likely want an effective way to manage rosacea without waiting months for a local dermatology appointment in Germany. While Hi-Doctor's EU-licensed doctors do not prescribe standalone Soolantra (ivermectin 1% monotherapy), they evaluate papulopustular rosacea online and may prescribe targeted topical treatments, such as a compounded ivermectin 1% + metronidazole 0.75% + niacinamide 2% gel or azelaic acid 15% gel when clinically appropriate. Through an asynchronous questionnaire with a skin photo upload, a doctor reviews your case within 24 hours. The medical consultation costs 40 €, and the 40 EUR consultation fee is refunded in full if the doctor does not issue a prescription. If approved, you receive a downloadable REMPE prescription PDF that can be presented at any EU pharmacy, where the pharmacist reviews it and may dispense the medication.
Over 50,000 patients have accessed asynchronous medical care through Hi-Doctor, maintaining a 4.8/5 Trustpilot rating for fast, transparent doctor consultations.
How it works — get your consultation in 4 steps
Securing a medical evaluation for rosacea online does not require scheduling a video call or visiting a waiting room. The entire consultation takes place asynchronously through a secure medical questionnaire.
- Complete the medical questionnaire: Answer questions about your skin symptoms, previous rosacea treatments, known triggers, and current medications.
- Upload clear photographs: Provide high-resolution photos of your affected facial areas so the doctor can assess lesion types and inflammatory severity.
- Medical review: An EU-licensed doctor reviews your case and, when clinically appropriate, issues an electronic prescription within 24 hours.
- Receive your REMPE prescription: Download the official REMPE PDF file directly from your account. You can print the document or present it on your smartphone at an EU pharmacy.

Who qualifies
Online consultations are designed for adults experiencing mild to moderate facial rosacea who need targeted topical management. To qualify for a prescription, an EU doctor must confirm that your condition can be safely managed outside a physical clinic.

- Eligible symptoms: Persistent facial erythema (redness), inflammatory papules, pustules on the cheeks, nose, forehead, or chin, and visible sensitivity.
- Mandatory photo upload: High-quality photos allow the reviewing clinician to distinguish papulopustular rosacea from acne vulgaris, perioral dermatitis, or contact allergies.
- Exclusions requiring in-person care: Suspected ocular rosacea (eye pain, dryness, vision changes), rhinophyma (tissue thickening of the nose), severe cystic or nodular lesions, and cases requiring oral antibiotics or oral isotretinoin. Hi-Doctor does not prescribe oral dermatology medications.
What Soolantra actually does
Soolantra contains 1% ivermectin. It works via a dual mechanism: reducing the overproliferation of microscopic Demodex mites residing in hair follicles and providing direct anti-inflammatory effects that calm papules and pustules. However, because mono-formulations may address only one pathway, Hi-Doctor's medical team often utilises multi-ingredient topical formulations for enhanced management.
Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory disorder that is managed rather than cured. While topical therapies control active outbreaks, avoiding common triggers—such as UV exposure, alcohol, spicy foods, temperature extremes, and stress—remains essential to prevent relapse.
| Treatment Option | Active Ingredients | Clinical Target | Prescribed by Hi-Doctor |
|---|---|---|---|
| Soolantra (Brand) | Ivermectin 1% | Demodex density and inflammation | No (Brand not prescribed) |
| Compounded Rosacea Gel | Ivermectin 1% + Metronidazole 0.75% + Niacinamide 2% | Inflammatory bumps, pustules, and skin barrier support | Yes (when appropriate) |
| Compounded Erythema Cream | Metronidazole 0.75% + Niacinamide 4% + Azelaic Acid 10% + Allantoin 0.5% | Persistent central facial erythema and soothing | Yes (when appropriate) |
| Azelaic Acid 15% Gel | Azelaic acid 15% | Papulopustular rosacea first-line monotherapy | Yes (when appropriate) |
Side effects and when to stop
Most patients tolerate topical rosacea therapies well, but initial skin adaptation is common during the first 2 to 4 weeks. Mild burning, stinging, erythema, or transient dryness may occur as the skin adjusts or as Demodex mite numbers decrease.
Visible clinical improvement typically develops between weeks 4 and 12 of consistent daily application. You should stop treatment and seek urgent in-person medical attention if you develop severe allergic contact dermatitis, intense facial swelling, hives, or worsening ocular symptoms.

Under Directive 2011/24/EU, prescriptions issued in one EU Member State can be presented in another, and they incorporate the core identification standards outlined in Commission Implementing Directive 2012/52/EU. In Germany, the pharmacist reviews the REMPE PDF and may dispense a locally marketed equivalent. Note that dispensing remains at the professional discretion of the individual pharmacist.
COMMON QUESTIONS
Frequently asked questions
No. Hi-Doctor's EU-licensed doctors do not prescribe brand-name Soolantra or standalone ivermectin cream. Instead, they evaluate your questionnaire and photos to determine if a multi-ingredient compounded papulopustular gel (ivermectin 1% + metronidazole 0.75% + niacinamide 2%) or azelaic acid 15% gel is clinically suitable for your rosacea.
