Directions for Use
HOE Cloderm 0.05% Ointment should only be used according to the amount, frequency, and duration prescribed by your doctor following an online consultation with DoctorOnCall. A thin layer is applied to clean, affected skin only, gently rubbed in until absorbed, and should not be applied to unaffected surrounding skin. Wash your hands thoroughly after application unless your hands are the area being treated, and do not cover the treated area with a bandage or dressing unless specifically instructed by your doctor.
Dosage
The exact amount and frequency of HOE Cloderm 0.05% Ointment is determined individually by your prescribing doctor based on the site, extent, and severity of the skin condition, and is generally limited to once or twice daily for a short, defined course, often not exceeding two to four weeks of continuous use. Do not apply more than the prescribed amount, treat a larger area than advised, or continue beyond the recommended duration without medical review.
Shelf Life
HOE Cloderm 0.05% Ointment is generally stable for up to 36 months from the date of manufacture when stored correctly and unopened. Always check the expiry date printed on the tube or carton before use, and do not use the ointment if it has expired or if its colour or texture has changed.
Storage Instructions

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 HOE Cloderm 0.05% Ointment 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 HOE Cloderm 0.05% Ointment 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
As a super-potent topical corticosteroid, HOE Cloderm 0.05% Ointment is generally reserved for severe or resistant skin conditions and prescribed for the shortest effective duration, often followed by a step-down to a milder steroid or a non-steroid maintenance treatment. Extended or excessive use of potent corticosteroids, especially on thin-skinned areas like the face or skin folds, can lead to permanent skin thinning, stretch marks, or rarely, absorption into the bloodstream affecting the body’s natural steroid balance, so regular follow-up with your doctor is important.
