Why is there no information here about what Acustop 40mg Plaster 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 Acustop 40mg Plaster?

Use it exactly as stated on the pack label, without changing the amount or how often you use it. If anything on the label is unclear, check with a pharmacist before the first use, and read the Directions for Use section on this page.

Can I speak to a doctor or pharmacist about Acustop 40mg Plaster 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.

What should I do if I notice side effects after using Acustop 40mg Plaster?

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 Acustop 40mg Plaster 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 Acustop 40mg Plaster 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.

Overview

It is classified as a non-prescription medicine, so no prescription is needed to order it. Under Malaysian rules for medicine information, this page carries product, safety and handling information only.

Directions for Use

Apply Acustop 40mg Plaster to clean, dry, intact skin over the painful area exactly as instructed by your doctor. Do not apply it to broken skin, wounds, rashes, or eczema. Wash your hands after application unless the hands are the area being treated, and follow the prescribed duration of wear and frequency of replacement, which your doctor will confirm during the online consultation.

Dosage

Dosing with Acustop 40mg Plaster is individualised by the prescribing doctor, typically involving one plaster applied to the affected area once or twice daily, and should not exceed the maximum number of plasters or duration of use advised. Do not apply more than one plaster to the same area at the same time, and do not use for longer than prescribed without medical review.

Shelf Life

Acustop 40mg Plaster typically has a shelf life of around 24 to 36 months from the date of manufacture when stored unopened under the recommended conditions. Always check the expiry date printed on the individual sachet and outer carton before use.

Storage Instructions

Store Acustop 40mg Plaster below 30°C in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture, keeping each plaster sealed in its individual pouch until ready for use. Keep out of the reach and sight of children.

Drug / Food Interactions

Using Acustop 40mg Plaster together with oral NSAIDs (such as ibuprofen or diclofenac) or aspirin may increase the overall NSAID exposure and the risk of side effects

Relevant Information

Acustop 40mg Plaster is prescribed for localised musculoskeletal pain where a doctor has assessed that a topical NSAID is appropriate, offering targeted relief while reducing whole-body NSAID exposure compared with oral tablets. Even so, prolonged or excessive use, use over large areas of skin, or use in people with a history of stomach, kidney, or heart conditions still requires medical oversight, which is why this product is dispensed only after an online consultation via DoctorOnCall.
