How to Get Epiduo Online in Ourense

You want Epiduo (adapalene + benzoyl peroxide) in Ourense and you don't want to wait weeks for a dermatology appointment. You can get a prescription online through Hi-Doctor's EU-licensed doctors — no clinic visit, no waiting room, no video call. The consultation costs 40 €, and if the doctor decides Epiduo isn't right for you, you get a full refund. If it is, you receive a downloadable REMPE electronic prescription in under 24 hours that you can take to any pharmacy in Ourense or across the EU.

How it works — get your consultation in 4 steps

1. Complete the medical questionnaire — answer a few questions about your acne history, current treatments, and medical background. You must upload clear photos of the affected skin; this is the single biggest trust differentiator versus a text-only form.
2. An EU-licensed doctor reviews your case — the doctor assesses your photos and answers to determine if topical adapalene 0.1% + benzoyl peroxide 2.5% gel (Epiduo) is clinically appropriate for you.
3. Decision in under 24 hours — if the doctor approves, you receive a REMPE prescription (Spain's official digital-private-prescription standard) as a downloadable PDF inside your Hi-Doctor account and by email. If not, you are refunded in full.
4. Collect Epiduo at any pharmacy — print the PDF or show it on your phone. In Spain, the pharmacist validates the QR through the central registry. Outside Spain, the pharmacist reviews the prescription and may dispense a locally marketed equivalent with the same active ingredients. Pharmacists retain the right to refuse.

No risk — if the doctor says no, you get your money back. 50 000+ patients served, 4.8 Trustpilot rating.

Who qualifies

Hi-Doctor's doctors prescribe Epiduo for mild to moderate acne with comedones and inflammatory lesions. You must be able to upload clear photos of your skin. The treatment is topical only — oral isotretinoin, oral antibiotics, and severe, nodular, cystic, or scarring acne are referred to in-person care.

You are likely a candidate if you have tried over-the-counter products without success and your acne is not deep, painful, or leaving scars.

What Epiduo actually does

Epiduo is a fixed-combination gel containing adapalene 0.1% (a third-generation retinoid) and benzoyl peroxide 2.5% (an antibacterial). Adapalene works deep inside the pore to normalise skin cell turnover and prevent new comedones. Benzoyl peroxide kills Cutibacterium acnes bacteria on the skin surface and reduces inflammation. Together they target both comedones and inflammatory lesions at once, avoiding the antibiotic resistance that oral courses drive.

Realistic timeline: Retinoid purging (a temporary worsening of acne) is common in weeks 2–6. Meaningful improvement is judged at 12 weeks, not before. Do not expect clear skin in the first month.

Side effects and when to stop

Common side effects include dryness, peeling, redness, and a mild burning sensation. These usually improve as your skin adjusts. Apply a thin layer once nightly to clean, dry skin. Use a non-comedogenic moisturiser and sunscreen daily — Epiduo increases sun sensitivity.

Stop use and contact your doctor if you experience severe blistering, crusting, or swelling. Hi-Doctor's doctors are available through your secure account if you have concerns.
