How should I use Atrovent N 20mcg Inhaler?

Can I speak to a doctor or pharmacist about Atrovent N 20mcg Inhaler before I buy it?

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 Atrovent N 20mcg Inhaler 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 Atrovent N 20mcg Inhaler 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

Atrovent N 20mcg Inhaler contains Ipratropium Bromide 20mcg per actuation (metered-dose inhaler) and is presented as an inhaler. It is supplied in a pack size of 200 doses.

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.

You can consult a doctor or pharmacist online on DoctorOnCall about this product before or after you order. Every order is checked by a registered pharmacist before it is delivered. Always read the label and the leaflet supplied with the pack.

Directions for Use

Shake the inhaler well before each use. Breathe out fully, then place the mouthpiece between your lips, forming a tight seal, and breathe in slowly and deeply while pressing down on the canister to release one dose. Hold your breath for about 10 seconds before breathing out slowly. Rinse your mouth with water after use if advised by your doctor. Ensure you are shown the correct inhaler technique by your doctor or pharmacist, as incorrect technique reduces the effectiveness of the medicine.

Dosage

The typical adult dose prescribed is one to two puffs (20-40mcg) taken up to three or four times daily, as directed by your doctor based on the severity of symptoms and response to treatment. Do not exceed the number of puffs or frequency prescribed. If your usual dose does not relieve symptoms as expected, contact your doctor promptly rather than increasing the dose on your own.

Shelf Life

Atrovent N 20mcg Inhaler should be used within the shelf-life period printed on the canister and carton when stored under the recommended conditions. Do not use the inhaler after the expiry date, and note the number of doses used to avoid running out unexpectedly, as the canister may continue to spray propellant without active medicine near the end of its labelled dose count.

Storage Instructions

Store below 30°C, away from direct sunlight and heat. Do not puncture, break, or expose the canister to temperatures above 50°C, as it is pressurised. Keep out of reach of children.

Contraindications

Known hypersensitivity to ipratropium bromide, atropine, or related anticholinergic compounds

Not intended for the relief of sudden, severe breathlessness without a doctor’s specific instruction on its use in that situation

Relevant Information

Atrovent N 20mcg Inhaler works differently from beta-agonist bronchodilators and is often used as part of a broader respiratory treatment plan for COPD or asthma under medical supervision. Correct inhaler technique is essential for the medicine to be effective, so it is important to have your technique reviewed by a doctor or pharmacist, particularly when starting treatment.
