What is Spironolactone and what is it used for?

Spironolactone is a treatment related to hair growth. Hi-Doctor does not prescribe it today, but our licensed doctors can review your case and propose hair growth alternatives with robust clinical evidence and EU regulatory approval.

Why does Hi-Doctor not prescribe Spironolactone?

Our doctors only prescribe treatments with robust clinical evidence, an EU-approved indication and a reviewed safety profile. Spironolactone is not on that list today — it may be investigational, not approved, or outside the scope of what we handle via telemedicine.

What alternatives can I consider within hair growth?

Our doctors review your history and propose the most appropriate treatment among those authorised in the EU for hair growth. The plan is €25 every 4 weeks for weight loss or €35 every 3 months for hair growth; sexual health remains a €35 one-off consultation. If your case is not eligible, the applicable fee is refunded.

How would my hair growth consultation work?

You fill in an online medical questionnaire (~4 min). An EU-licensed doctor reviews it and replies in under 24 h via the private chat in your account. If eligible, they issue a prescription electronic prescription valid in any EU pharmacy.

Can I get a consultation for Spironolactone from Germany?

Yes. Hi-Doctor runs 100 % online across the EU, so if you live in Germany you can fill in the questionnaire and receive the medical review without travelling. The electronic prescription issued by the licensed doctor is valid in any EU pharmacy under Directive 2011/24/EU; outside Spain, the pharmacist dispenses the locally marketed equivalent of the same active ingredient.

How does a doctor evaluate a hair-loss case in an online consultation?

Through the pattern of loss, how long it has been progressing, family history and current medication. In some cases we ask for scalp photos. The doctor proposes a tailored treatment plan and adjusts it to your tolerance.

What is the private electronic prescription and why is it valid across the EU?

The private electronic prescription (Receta Médica Privada Electrónica) is issued by a licensed doctor in Spain. It is a PDF carrying every field required by EU Directive 2011/24/EU (patient, prescriber with country of registration, active ingredient, dose), which makes it legally recognised across all 27 EU member states. In Spanish pharmacies it is dispensed from the QR; outside Spain, the pharmacist dispenses the locally marketed equivalent of the same active ingredient.

How does Hi-Doctor work step by step?

1) Fill in an online medical questionnaire in about 4 minutes. 2) The plan is €25 every 4 weeks for weight loss or €35 every 3 months for hair growth; sexual health is €35 per consultation. 3) An EU-licensed doctor reviews your case and, if appropriate, issues an electronic prescription. 4) Collect it at any EU pharmacy. If the review is not approved, the applicable fee is refunded in full.

How much does it cost and what does the price include?

The plan is €25 every 4 weeks for weight loss or €35 every 3 months for hair growth; a one-off sexual-health consultation is €35. Each includes a licensed doctor's review and an electronic prescription if approved. If the review is not approved, the applicable fee is refunded in full. Medication is paid for separately at the pharmacy at the price it sets.
