Overview
Axcel Fusidic Acid-B Cream is supplied as a cream, with Fusidic Acid. It is supplied in a pack size of 15g.
No prescription is required for this product, as it is a non-prescription medicine. This page is limited to product, safety and handling information.
If you would like guidance before buying, you can speak to a doctor or pharmacist through an online consultation on DoctorOnCall. Orders are dispensed by a registered pharmacist and delivered to your address.
Directions for Use
Axcel Fusidic Acid-B Cream should only be used as directed by the prescribing doctor. A thin layer is typically applied to the affected area two to three times a day, or as instructed, and gently rubbed in. Hands should be washed before and after application unless the hands are the area being treated, and the cream should not be applied more widely or for longer than prescribed.
Dosage
The dosage and duration of Axcel Fusidic Acid-B Cream must be determined by the prescribing doctor, taking into account the location, extent, and severity of the infected skin condition. Treatment courses are usually limited to a short period, commonly around one to two weeks, because prolonged use of the corticosteroid component increases the risk of skin thinning and other steroid-related side effects, and prolonged antibiotic use increases the risk of bacterial resistance.
Shelf Life
Axcel Fusidic Acid-B Cream should be used within the shelf-life period printed on the packaging when stored under the recommended conditions. Do not use the product beyond its expiry date, and dispose of any unused or expired cream responsibly.
Storage Instructions
Store Axcel Fusidic Acid-B Cream below 30°C in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep the tube tightly closed after use and out of the reach of children.

Stop using the product and speak to a doctor or pharmacist about any reaction that concerns you.

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 Axcel Fusidic Acid-B 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 Axcel Fusidic Acid-B 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.
