Why is there no information here about what Dyna Cortisone 1% Cream 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 Dyna Cortisone 1% Cream?

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 Dyna Cortisone 1% Cream 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 Dyna Cortisone 1% Cream?

Stop using the product and speak to a doctor or pharmacist about any reaction that concerns you.

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 Dyna Cortisone 1% Cream 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 Dyna Cortisone 1% Cream 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.

Directions for Use

Apply a thin layer of Dyna Cortisone 1% Cream to the affected area of clean, dry skin, usually one to two times daily, gently rubbing it in until absorbed; wash your hands after application unless the hands are the area being treated, and use only for as long as advised on the label or by a doctor or pharmacist, typically no more than 7 days unless otherwise directed.

Dosage

Use the smallest amount needed to thinly cover the affected area, applied once or twice daily; if there is no improvement within 7 days, or if the condition worsens, stop use and consult a doctor or pharmacist rather than continuing or increasing the frequency of application on your own.

Relevant Information

Hydrocortisone 1% is one of the mildest topical corticosteroids available and is widely used across Malaysia and Singapore as a first-line, short-term treatment for minor skin irritation, itching, and inflammation. It is generally well tolerated for short courses, but customers with a rash that does not improve after a week, that appears infected, or that covers a large area of the body should seek medical advice rather than continue self-treatment.
