Overview
Implanon NXT 68mg Implant is supplied as a healthcare product, with Etonogestrel 68mg. It is supplied in a pack size of 1s.
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
This medicine requires a prescription and cannot be self-inserted. After an online consultation confirms suitability, a trained doctor inserts the rod under local anaesthetic into the inner side of the non-dominant upper arm using a pre-loaded applicator; the procedure takes only a few minutes. The implant should be removed or replaced by a healthcare provider by the end of the third year, or sooner if advised by your doctor.
Dosage
Implanon NXT delivers etonogestrel continuously from a single 68mg rod once inserted; there is no tablet to take or dose to self-administer. Your doctor will confirm the correct timing of insertion relative to your menstrual cycle or previous contraceptive method to ensure immediate and continuous protection.
Shelf Life
Unopened and unused, the implant applicator is generally stable for the shelf life stated on its packaging when stored correctly; once inserted, it is designed to remain effective for up to 3 years, after which it must be removed or replaced.
Storage Instructions
Prior to insertion, the sterile applicator should be stored below 30°C in a dry place, protected from light, and kept in its original sealed packaging until the healthcare provider is ready to use it. It should never be stored or handled by the patient for self-insertion.

Prior to insertion, the sterile applicator should be stored below 30°C in a dry place, protected from light, and kept in its original sealed packaging until the healthcare provider is ready to use it. It should never be stored or handled by the patient for self-insertion. Keep it in its original pack and do not use it after the expiry date printed on the packaging.
What should I do if I notice side effects after using Implanon NXT 68mg Implant?
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.

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 Implanon NXT 68mg Implant 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 Implanon NXT 68mg Implant 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.
