Overview
Nordette Tablet is supplied as a tablet, with Levonorgestrel (progestin hormone component). It is supplied in a pack size of 21s.
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
Nordette should only be taken after a doctor has prescribed it following a consultation, such as through DoctorOnCall’s online consultation service. Tablets are usually taken once daily at approximately the same time each day, following the sequence and instructions on the pack, and it is important not to skip or double up doses without guidance, as this can reduce contraceptive effectiveness.
Dosage
The typical regimen involves taking one tablet daily for the number of active days specified on the pack, following the prescribing doctor’s instructions and the patient information leaflet, often followed by a short hormone-free interval depending on the pack type. Your prescribing doctor will confirm exactly how to start the pack based on your cycle and individual circumstances, and dosing should never be adjusted without medical advice.
Shelf Life
Nordette Tablet typically has a shelf life of around 2 to 3 years from the date of manufacture when stored correctly and unopened; always check the expiry date printed on the packaging before use. Do not use tablets beyond their expiry date, as their hormonal potency and reliability as a contraceptive cannot be guaranteed.
Storage Instructions
Store Nordette Tablet below 30°C in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture, keeping it in its original blister pack until each dose is taken. Keep out of reach and sight of children, as accidental ingestion of hormonal tablets can be harmful.

Why is there no information here about what Nordette Tablet 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 Nordette Tablet?
Use it exactly as stated on the pack label, without changing the amount or how often you use it. If anything on the label is unclear, check with a pharmacist before the first use, and read the Directions for Use section on this page.
Can I speak to a doctor or pharmacist about Nordette Tablet 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.
How should I store Nordette Tablet?
Store Nordette Tablet below 30°C in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture, keeping it in its original blister pack until each dose is taken. Keep out of reach and sight of children, as accidental ingestion of hormonal tablets can be harmful. 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 Nordette 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 Nordette 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 Nordette 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.
