Can I speak to a doctor or pharmacist about Nurofen Express 342mg 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.

What should I do if I notice side effects after using Nurofen Express 342mg Tablet?

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 Nurofen Express 342mg 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 Nurofen Express 342mg 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.

Overview

Nurofen Express 342mg Tablet is a tablet with Ibuprofen lysine 342mg, equivalent to ibuprofen 200mg declared as its active content. It is supplied in a pack size of 12s.

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 the tablet whole with a full glass of water, taken with or after food where possible to help reduce stomach irritation. Adults and adolescents aged 12 years and above may take one or two tablets every 4 to 6 hours as needed, depending on the dose required and the maximum stated on the label, without exceeding the total daily maximum. Do not take together with any other ibuprofen-containing or NSAID product to avoid exceeding the safe daily dose.

Dosage

The usual adult dose is one to two 342mg tablets (equivalent to 200-400mg ibuprofen) every 4 to 6 hours as needed, not exceeding the maximum daily dose printed on the packaging, and not used for longer than 3 days for fever or 4 days for pain without medical advice. Adolescents aged 12 to 17 years should follow the age-specific dosing shown on the label, generally starting with a single tablet per dose. If a dose is missed, take it as soon as remembered, but do not take a double dose to make up for the one missed.

Shelf Life

Do not use beyond the expiry date printed on the blister strip and outer carton. Keep tablets in their original blister packaging until needed, which helps protect them from moisture and maintain quality until the labelled expiry date.
