Overview
Escapelle 1.5mg Tablet is a tablet with Levonorgestrel 1.5mg declared as its active content. It is supplied in a pack size of 1s.
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
Swallow one Escapelle tablet whole with water as soon as possible after unprotected intercourse and no later than 72 hours afterward, with or without food; if vomiting occurs within 3 hours of taking the tablet, seek advice from a pharmacist or doctor promptly as a repeat dose may be needed.
Dosage
The dose is a single 1.5mg tablet of levonorgestrel taken as one complete dose; no second tablet is required, and Escapelle should not be taken more than once within the same menstrual cycle without first seeking advice from a pharmacist or doctor.
Shelf Life
Escapelle tablets are generally stable for up to 2 to 3 years from the date of manufacture when stored correctly and unopened; always check the expiry date printed on the blister strip and carton before use.
Storage Instructions
Store below 30°C in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture, keep the tablet in its original blister packaging until ready to use, and keep out of reach and sight of children.

- Headache
- Breast tenderness
- Dizziness
- Change in timing, duration, or flow of the next menstrual period
- Vomiting (uncommon, but requires prompt advice if it occurs within 3 hours of dosing)
Contraindications

- Known hypersensitivity to levonorgestrel or any ingredient in the tablet
- Severe liver disease or impaired liver function, without pharmacist or doctor advice
- Severe malabsorption conditions such as severe Crohn’s disease, which may reduce absorption and effectiveness
Drug / Food Interactions
- Enzyme-inducing medicines such as certain anticonvulsants (phenytoin, carbamazepine), rifampicin, and St John’s Wort may reduce the effectiveness of levonorgestrel and may require a doctor’s advice on alternative emergency contraception
- Concurrent use of other hormonal contraceptives does not add extra protection and should be discussed with a pharmacist
- Certain HIV medicines (some protease inhibitors) may reduce levonorgestrel effectiveness; inform the pharmacist of all medicines you take
Quick Tips

What should I do if I notice side effects after using Escapelle 1.5mg Tablet?
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 Escapelle 1.5mg 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 Escapelle 1.5mg 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.
