Overview
Dermal G Cream is a cream with Gentamicin Sulfate declared as its active content. It is supplied in a pack size of 15g.
This is a non-prescription product and can be purchased without a prescription. Only product, safety and handling details are published on this page.
An online consultation with a DoctorOnCall doctor or pharmacist is available for this product, and a registered pharmacist reviews each order before dispatch to Malaysia or Singapore. Follow the directions on the label and on the leaflet inside the pack.
Directions for Use
Dermal G Cream should be used strictly as directed by the prescribing doctor. A thin layer is usually applied to the cleaned, affected area two to three times daily, gently rubbed in, with hands washed before and after application. The treated area may be left uncovered or lightly covered as advised, and the full course should be completed even if the skin appears to improve before finishing, unless a doctor advises otherwise.
Dosage
The frequency and duration of Dermal G Cream use are determined by the prescribing doctor based on the type, severity, and extent of the skin infection. Treatment courses are typically short, often around 7 to 14 days, and should not be extended or repeated without further medical assessment to reduce the risk of antibiotic resistance.
Shelf Life
Dermal G Cream is generally stable for up to 24 to 36 months from the date of manufacture when unopened and stored correctly; the exact expiry date is printed on the tube and outer packaging. Do not use the cream beyond its stated expiry date.
Storage Instructions
Store Dermal G Cream below 30°C in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep the tube tightly closed after each use and out of reach of children.

Why is there no information here about what Dermal G Cream is for?
This page is limited to product, safety and handling information in line with Malaysian rules on medicine information. If you want advice on whether this product suits you, book an online consultation with a doctor or pharmacist on DoctorOnCall.
How should I use Dermal G Cream?
Follow the instructions printed on the label and in the leaflet supplied with the pack, and do not exceed the stated amount or duration. Handling steps are set out in the Directions for Use section on this page.
Can I speak to a doctor or pharmacist about Dermal G Cream before I buy it?
Yes. DoctorOnCall offers online consultations with licensed doctors and registered pharmacists, so you can ask about this product, your existing medicines, or anything on the label before you place an order.
How should I store Dermal G Cream?
Store Dermal G Cream below 30°C in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep the tube tightly closed after each use and out of reach of children. Keep it in its original pack and do not use it after the expiry date printed on the packaging.
What should I do if I notice side effects after using Dermal G Cream?
Stop using the product and speak to a doctor or pharmacist about any reaction that concerns you. Seek medical care immediately for signs of a severe reaction such as difficulty breathing, swelling of the face, lips or throat, or a widespread rash. Reported reactions are listed in the Side Effects section on this page.
How long will delivery take?
Within Malaysia, standard delivery takes 3 to 5 working days. Same-day delivery is available in the Klang Valley for orders placed before 12pm; orders placed after 12pm arrive by the end of the next day.
Orders to Singapore are sent as international deliveries and take 5 to 9 working days. A lump-sum shipping and handling fee applies to every overseas delivery and is shown at checkout.
What payment methods can I use?
Customers in Malaysia can pay by FPX online banking, credit or debit card (Visa and Mastercard), and supported e-wallets including Touch ‘n Go eWallet, GrabPay and ShopeePay.
FPX and local e-wallets are tied to Malaysian bank and wallet accounts, so if your delivery address is in Singapore, use the payment options displayed at checkout for that address rather than assuming the same list applies.
Can Dermal G Cream be delivered to Singapore?
Yes. DoctorOnCall ships to Singapore as an international order dispatched from Malaysia, arriving in 5 to 9 working days with a lump-sum shipping and handling fee.
Singapore’s Health Sciences Authority (HSA) allows personal imports of up to three months’ supply of a medicine for your own use or an immediate family member’s, as long as it contains no controlled drugs, psychotropic substances or prohibited items. Keep the product in its original labelled packaging and keep a copy of your prescription or doctor’s letter with it. Quantities above three months’ supply, and medicines containing controlled substances, require prior HSA approval.
Is Dermal G Cream registered with the authorities?
Products listed on DoctorOnCall are registered with Malaysia’s Ministry of Health for supply in Malaysia, and each pack carries its MAL registration number.
An order delivered to Singapore arrives as a personal import of a Malaysia-registered product; HSA product registration is not required for personal-use quantities, but it is also not the same as a product registered for sale in Singapore. If you need a locally registered Singapore product, buy it from a pharmacy in Singapore.
Who do I contact if there is a problem with my order?
DoctorOnCall’s customer care team handles order, delivery and product queries through the contact channels on the site, including WhatsApp and the online help centre.
For deliveries to Singapore, allow more time before chasing an order than you would for a local Malaysian delivery, as the parcel passes through customs clearance and tracking updates can appear later in the journey.

Relevant Information
Dermal G Cream is intended for short-term treatment of confirmed or suspected bacterial skin infections under medical supervision. Overuse or inappropriate use of topical antibiotics like Gentamicin can contribute to antibiotic resistance and reduce future treatment options, so patients should only use this cream as prescribed and should return to their doctor if symptoms persist or recur.
