Overview

Aprovel 150mg Tablet is a prescription-only medicine (POM) that contains Irbesartan 150mg. It is supplied as a tablet and is dispensed in Malaysia only against a valid prescription issued by a registered doctor.

Under Malaysian rules for prescription medicines, this page carries product, safety and handling information only. Your doctor or pharmacist will explain whether this medicine is suitable for you, the dose you should take, and how long you should take it.

On DoctorOnCall, Aprovel 150mg Tablet is reviewed by a licensed doctor through an online consultation and dispensed by a registered pharmacist before delivery. Always follow the instructions on your prescription label and the package insert supplied with the product, and do not share this medicine with anyone else.

Directions for Use

Aprovel should be taken exactly as prescribed by your doctor, usually once daily at the same time each day, with or without food, and swallowed whole with a glass of water. Continue taking this medicine even if you feel well, as blood pressure and kidney protection require ongoing, consistent treatment.

Dosage

The dose is individualised by your doctor based on the condition being treated, blood pressure response, and kidney function, typically starting at a standard dose and adjusted as needed. Do not change your dose or stop treatment without consulting your doctor, as doing so may cause blood pressure to rise or reduce the protective effect on your kidneys.

Shelf Life

Aprovel 150mg Tablet is generally stable for up to 36 months from the date of manufacture when unopened and stored correctly; always check the expiry date printed on the packaging and do not use beyond this date.

Storage Instructions

Store below 30°C in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture, and keep the tablets in their original packaging until ready for use. Keep out of reach and sight of children.

Side Effects

  • Dizziness or lightheadedness, especially when standing up
  • Fatigue or tiredness
  • Nausea
  • Headache
  • High potassium levels (may show as muscle weakness or irregular heartbeat)
  • Back pain

Contraindications

  • Known hypersensitivity to irbesartan or any other ingredient in the formulation
  • Pregnancy, as ARBs can cause harm to the developing fetus, particularly in the second and third trimesters
  • Severe liver impairment
  • Concurrent use with aliskiren-containing medicines in patients with diabetes or moderate-to-severe kidney impairment

Drug / Food Interactions

  • Potassium supplements or potassium-sparing diuretics may increase the risk of high blood potassium
  • NSAIDs (e.g. ibuprofen) may reduce the blood pressure-lowering effect and affect kidney function
  • Other blood pressure-lowering medicines may increase the risk of hypotension when combined
  • Lithium levels may be increased when combined with this medicine, requiring monitoring

Quick Tips

  • Take Aprovel at the same time each day to help maintain consistent blood pressure and kidney protection
  • Have your blood pressure, kidney function, and blood potassium monitored regularly as advised by your doctor
  • Inform your doctor immediately if you suspect you are pregnant
  • Rise slowly from sitting or lying positions if you feel dizzy
  • Do not stop treatment abruptly without medical advice

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Aprovel 150mg Tablet a prescription medicine?

Yes. Aprovel 150mg Tablet is a prescription-only medicine (POM). It can only be supplied against a valid prescription written by a registered doctor, and it should be used only by the person named on the prescription label.

What does Aprovel 150mg Tablet contain?

Aprovel 150mg Tablet is supplied as a tablet and contains Irbesartan 150mg. The full composition is listed in the Composition section on this page and on the product packaging.

Why is there no information here about what Aprovel 150mg Tablet is for?

Malaysian rules for prescription medicines limit public product pages to product, safety and handling information. Your doctor decides whether this medicine is appropriate for you and will explain it during your consultation, and your pharmacist can answer further questions when the medicine is dispensed.

How should I take Aprovel 150mg Tablet?

Take it exactly as written on your prescription label. Do not increase, reduce or skip doses on your own, and do not continue beyond the period your doctor has prescribed. Practical handling steps are set out in the Directions for Use section on this page.

What should I do if I miss a dose?

Take it as soon as you remember, unless your next dose is nearly due. In that case skip the missed dose and carry on with your usual schedule. Never take two doses together to make up for a missed one. If you miss doses often, tell your doctor or pharmacist.

How should I store Aprovel 150mg Tablet?

Store below 30°C in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture, and keep the tablets in their original packaging until ready for use. Keep out of reach and sight of children. Keep it in the original pack until use, and do not use it after the expiry date printed on the packaging.

What should I do if I notice side effects?

Tell your doctor or pharmacist about any reaction that concerns you, and 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.

Can I stop taking Aprovel 150mg Tablet on my own?

No. Speak to your doctor before stopping, pausing or changing the dose, even if you feel well or think you no longer need the medicine.

How do I get a prescription for Aprovel 150mg Tablet?

Customers in Malaysia can complete an online consultation with a DoctorOnCall doctor, who decides whether a prescription is appropriate, or upload a valid prescription already issued by their own doctor.

Orders going to Singapore are dispatched from Malaysia as an international delivery, so you need to hold a valid prescription or doctor’s letter for the medicine. Check the consultation and prescription upload options shown at checkout for your delivery address before placing the order.

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 Aprovel 150mg 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 Aprovel 150mg 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.
