Why is there no information here about what Dexaltin 1mg/g Oral Paste 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 Dexaltin 1mg/g Oral Paste?

Follow the instructions printed on the label and in the leaflet supplied with the pack, and do not exceed the stated amount or duration. Handling steps are set out in the Directions for Use section on this page.

Can I speak to a doctor or pharmacist about Dexaltin 1mg/g Oral Paste 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 Dexaltin 1mg/g Oral Paste?

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 Dexaltin 1mg/g Oral Paste 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 Dexaltin 1mg/g Oral Paste 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

Dexaltin 1mg/g Oral Paste is supplied as a healthcare product, with Triamcinolone Acetonide 1mg/g. It is supplied in a pack size of 2g.

No prescription is required for this product, as it is a non-prescription medicine. This page is limited to product, safety and handling information.

If you would like guidance before buying, you can speak to a doctor or pharmacist through an online consultation on DoctorOnCall. Orders are dispensed by a registered pharmacist and delivered to your address.

Directions for Use

Dry the affected area gently with a clean cotton swab or tissue before applying a small amount of Dexaltin 1mg/g Oral Paste directly onto the ulcer, without rubbing it in. It is best applied at bedtime and after meals for longer contact time with the ulcer, and hands should be washed before and after application unless a cotton applicator is used.

Dosage

A thin layer of Dexaltin 1mg/g Oral Paste is usually applied to the affected area two to three times a day, or as directed on the packaging, continuing until the ulcer has healed. Do not use more than the recommended amount or for longer than advised, as prolonged use of topical corticosteroids in the mouth is not recommended without medical supervision.

Shelf Life

Dexaltin 1mg/g Oral Paste should be used within the shelf life stated on the tube or carton when stored under the recommended conditions. Do not use the paste after the expiry date, and discard any unused or expired product safely.

Storage Instructions

Store Dexaltin 1mg/g Oral Paste in a cool, dry place below 30°C, away from direct sunlight. Keep the tube tightly capped after use and store it out of the sight and reach of children.

Drug / Food Interactions

Avoid eating or drinking immediately after application to allow the paste to adhere properly

Concurrent use of other oral topical products on the same site should be spaced apart to avoid diluting the paste’s effect

Quick Tips

Use a cotton swab or clean fingertip for application and wash hands afterwards
