3. Doctor evaluation within 24 hours: An EU-licensed doctor assesses your case. If treatment is not clinically appropriate, the 40 EUR consultation fee is refunded in full if the doctor does not issue a prescription.
4. Download your REMPE prescription: If approved, your official Spanish REMPE digital prescription PDF is available immediately in your account to present at your local pharmacy.

Who qualifies

Hi-Doctor provides assessment for mild to moderate dermatological conditions. Azelaic acid 15% gel (often marketed under brand names such as Skinoren or Finacea) is commonly prescribed for both acne vulgaris and papulopustular rosacea.

• Adults with mild-to-moderate acne: Patients dealing with comedones, papules, or pustules who want an effective topical comedolytic and antibacterial agent.
• Patients with rosacea: Individuals experiencing persistent facial erythema and inflammatory papules or pustules.
• Darker skin phototypes: Azelaic acid does not cause photosensitivity and carries a low risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation compared to other topicals.
• Pregnant or breastfeeding patients: Azelaic acid is frequently the preferred topical option during pregnancy when retinoids are contraindicated.

Out of scope: Severe nodulocystic acne, deep scarring, and conditions requiring oral isotretinoin or oral antibiotics require hands-on physical examination. Hi-Doctor does not prescribe oral acne medications and refers severe cases to in-person specialist care.

What Azelaic-acid actually does

Azelaic acid 15% gel works through a dual mechanism: it normalises follicular keratinisation (preventing pores from clogging) and exerts an antibacterial effect against Cutibacterium acnes. Unlike oral antibiotics, topical azelaic acid does not induce bacterial resistance.

Application is typically twice daily to clean, dry skin. Dermatological response is progressive: initial improvement may appear within 4 weeks, but meaningful clinical change is judged at 12 weeks of consistent use.

Side effects and when to stop

Most side effects are local, mild, and resolve as your skin adapts over the first two to three weeks of application:

• Transient stinging, burning, or tingling upon application.
• Mild dryness, scaling, or localised redness.
• Temporary skin irritation or pruritus (itching).

If you experience severe swelling, hives, or intense burning that does not subside, discontinue use and message our medical team through your account inbox or seek immediate medical care.
