Can I speak to a doctor or pharmacist about Canesten GYN 100mg Vaginal Tablet before I buy it?

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 to use. Keep out of reach and sight of children at all times. Keep it in its original pack and do not use it after the expiry date printed on the packaging.

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 Canesten GYN 100mg Vaginal 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 Canesten GYN 100mg Vaginal 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.

Wash your hands before and after insertion, and continue with any other measures advised by your doctor, such as avoiding tight-fitting or non-breathable underwear during treatment.

Dosage

The typical regimen prescribed for Canesten GYN 100mg Vaginal Tablet is one tablet inserted into the vagina once daily for six consecutive nights, or as otherwise directed by the prescribing doctor based on the severity of the infection.

Not recommended for use during menstruation; treatment is generally best completed between periods
Caution advised during pregnancy — a doctor’s assessment is needed to confirm suitability and the appropriate insertion method

Complete the full 6-night course as prescribed, even if symptoms improve earlier
Wear loose, breathable cotton underwear during treatment and avoid tight synthetic fabrics
