Why is there no information here about what Hidrasec 100mg Capsule 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 Hidrasec 100mg Capsule?

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 Hidrasec 100mg Capsule 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 Hidrasec 100mg Capsule?

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 Hidrasec 100mg Capsule 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 Hidrasec 100mg Capsule 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

Hidrasec 100mg Capsule contains Racecadotril 100mg and is presented as a capsule. It is supplied in a pack size of 10s.

It is classified as a non-prescription medicine, so no prescription is needed to order it. Under Malaysian rules for medicine information, this page carries product, safety and handling information only.

You can consult a doctor or pharmacist online on DoctorOnCall about this product before or after you order. Every order is checked by a registered pharmacist before it is delivered. Always read the label and the leaflet supplied with the pack.

Directions for Use

Hidrasec 100mg Capsule should only be used according to the dose and duration prescribed by your doctor following an online consultation with DoctorOnCall. Capsules are usually swallowed whole with a glass of water and may be taken with or without food. Oral rehydration solution should be used alongside Hidrasec to replace fluids and electrolytes lost through diarrhoea, especially in the presence of vomiting or reduced fluid intake.

Dosage

The typical adult dose of Hidrasec 100mg Capsule is one capsule taken at the onset of diarrhoea, followed by one capsule every 8 hours as needed, in addition to standard oral rehydration measures. Treatment is usually continued only until diarrhoea resolves and should not exceed 7 days without further medical assessment. Always follow the exact dose and duration given on your prescription rather than any general guidance, and do not exceed the prescribed amount.

Shelf Life

Hidrasec 100mg Capsule is generally stable for up to 36 months from the date of manufacture when stored correctly and unopened. Always check the expiry date printed on the blister strip or carton before use, and do not take the capsules if the date has passed.

Storage Instructions

Store Hidrasec 100mg Capsule at room temperature, below 30 degrees Celsius, in a dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep the capsules in their original packaging until ready to use, and keep out of reach of children and pets.

Drug / Food Interactions

Relevant Information

Hidrasec 100mg Capsule is intended to relieve the symptoms of acute diarrhoea rather than treat its underlying cause, so prompt medical evaluation is important if diarrhoea is severe, persistent, accompanied by blood, high fever, or signs of dehydration such as reduced urination, dizziness, or dry mouth. It is generally used as a short adjunct to oral rehydration therapy rather than a long-term treatment. Elderly patients and those with kidney or liver conditions should be assessed carefully by their doctor before starting treatment.
