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
Gently blow your nose before use, shake the bottle lightly, and prime the pump if using for the first time or after a period of non-use by spraying a few times into the air until a fine mist appears; tilt the head slightly forward, insert the nozzle into one nostril, close the other nostril, and spray while breathing in gently, avoiding direct contact with the nasal septum or eyes.
Dosage
The typical adult dose is 2 sprays into each nostril once daily, or as an alternative regimen 1 spray into each nostril twice daily, though a doctor may adjust the dose once symptoms are controlled; the spray should be used regularly as directed rather than only when symptoms flare up, for the best effect.
Shelf Life
Once opened, Rhinocort 64mcg Aqua Nasal Spray is generally recommended to be discarded after the period stated on the packaging (commonly around 6 months), even if some liquid remains; always check the manufacturer’s expiry date and in-use discard period on the carton.
Storage Instructions
Store the nasal spray upright at room temperature below 30°C, away from direct heat and sunlight, and do not freeze the bottle; keep the cap on between uses and out of the reach of children.

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 Rhinocort 64mcg Aqua Nasal Spray 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 Rhinocort 64mcg Aqua Nasal Spray 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.

Relevant Information
Because Rhinocort is a corticosteroid nasal spray intended for prescription use, doctor supervision helps ensure the correct diagnosis, appropriate duration of treatment, and monitoring for the rare but recognised risks of long-term intranasal steroid use, such as nasal irritation or effects on growth in children; do not exceed the prescribed dose or duration without medical advice.
