Overview
Axcel Clindamycin 1% Topical Solution is a solution with Clindamycin Phosphate equivalent to 1% Clindamycin declared as its active content. It is supplied in a pack size of 30ml.
This is a non-prescription product and can be purchased without a prescription. Only product, safety and handling details are published on this page.
An online consultation with a DoctorOnCall doctor or pharmacist is available for this product, and a registered pharmacist reviews each order before dispatch to Malaysia or Singapore. Follow the directions on the label and on the leaflet inside the pack.
Directions for Use
Wash and gently pat dry the affected area before use. Apply a thin, even layer of the solution to the affected skin using the applicator or a clean cotton pad, avoiding the eyes, lips, mouth, and other mucous membranes. Allow the solution to dry before applying any other topical products, and wash hands thoroughly after application. Use only as directed by your doctor or pharmacist.
Dosage
The typical dosing is application once or twice daily to the affected areas, as advised by the prescribing doctor. Treatment duration is usually assessed after several weeks, as visible improvement in acne can take 4 to 8 weeks of consistent use. Do not increase the frequency or amount applied in an attempt to speed up results, as this raises the risk of skin irritation without improving efficacy.
Shelf Life
Axcel Clindamycin 1% Topical Solution should be used within the shelf-life period printed on the bottle and carton when stored correctly. Do not use the product beyond its expiry date, and check the solution for any change in colour, consistency, or odour before each use.
Storage Instructions
Store below 30°C in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep the bottle tightly closed when not in use and out of reach of children. Do not store in the bathroom cabinet if humidity and temperature fluctuate significantly there.

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 Axcel Clindamycin 1% Topical Solution?
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 Axcel Clindamycin 1% Topical Solution 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.
How should I store Axcel Clindamycin 1% Topical Solution?
Store below 30°C in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep the bottle tightly closed when not in use and out of reach of children. Do not store in the bathroom cabinet if humidity and temperature fluctuate significantly there. Keep it in its original pack and do not use it after the expiry date printed on the packaging.
What should I do if I notice side effects after using Axcel Clindamycin 1% Topical Solution?
Stop using the product and speak to a doctor or pharmacist about any reaction that concerns you. 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.
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 Axcel Clindamycin 1% Topical Solution 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 Axcel Clindamycin 1% Topical Solution 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.
