Directions for Use
Take Xepa Antamin 4mg Tablet by mouth with a glass of water, with or without food. Swallow the tablet whole rather than crushing or chewing it, and do not take more than the recommended dose or frequency on the label or as advised by your pharmacist. Avoid driving or operating machinery until you know how the tablet affects you, since it can cause noticeable drowsiness.
Dosage

Elderly patients may be more sensitive to its sedative and anticholinergic effects and may require a lower dose.

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 Xepa Antamin 4mg Tablet 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 Xepa Antamin 4mg Tablet 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
Xepa Antamin 4mg Tablet contains chlorpheniramine maleate, one of the most established antihistamines available over the counter in Malaysia. It is generally suitable for short-term or occasional use in adults and older children, but pregnant or breastfeeding women, elderly patients, and those with glaucoma, prostate problems, asthma, or liver or kidney conditions should seek pharmacist or doctor advice first. If allergy symptoms are severe, persistent, or come with breathing difficulty, facial swelling, or widespread hives, seek prompt medical attention rather than relying on this tablet alone.
