Rinscap W Irrigation Sterile Water

Rinscap W Irrigation Sterile Water contains Sterile Water and is presented as a healthcare product. It is supplied in a pack size of 500ml.

It is classified as an over-the-counter (OTC) 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.

Use aseptic (clean) technique throughout. Check that the seal is intact and the liquid is clear before opening; do not use if the container is damaged, the seal is broken, or the water appears cloudy or discoloured. Open a fresh container for each irrigation session, then pour or apply the water directly onto the wound or area to be cleaned, or add the required amount to a nebuliser chamber as directed for the medicine being diluted. Discard any unused portion after use rather than resealing and reusing it later.

There is no fixed medicinal dose, as this product is a sterile water vehicle rather than a drug. The amount used depends on the size of the wound or area being irrigated, or on the dilution instructions for the specific medicine it is being used to prepare, and should follow the guidance on the product packaging or the advice of a healthcare provider.

Please use the product before the expiry date printed on the packaging. A precise unopened shelf-life duration was not independently confirmed for this specific listing, so always check the date on your own pack rather than relying on a general estimate.

Store the unopened bottle at room temperature, away from direct heat and sunlight. Once opened, use promptly for the intended session and discard any leftover solution rather than storing it for later use, to help maintain sterility.

• Common: Mild, temporary stinging sensation when irrigating an open wound.
• Common: Temporary skin dryness with repeated or prolonged use on skin.
• Serious: Worsening redness, swelling, pain, or discharge at a wound site after irrigation are not expected from the sterile water itself, but may indicate an underlying infection or wound problem that needs prompt medical review.

• Not for injection or intravenous (drip) use under any circumstances.
• Not for oral consumption — this is not a drinking water product.
• Do not use if the container seal is broken, damaged, or if the solution appears cloudy, discoloured, or contains particles.

• No pharmacological drug interactions are known, as this product contains no active drug ingredient and is simply sterile water.
• When used to dilute another medicine, such as a nebuliser solution, always follow that medicine’s specific dilution instructions, as the correct ratio can vary between products.
• Not applicable to food interactions, as this is not a medicine taken by mouth.

• Always check the bottle for an intact seal and clear liquid before each use.
• Open a new bottle or container for each irrigation session rather than reusing an already-opened one.
• Use clean or sterile technique (clean hands, clean equipment) when irrigating a wound.
• Discard unused solution after the session rather than keeping it for the next use.
• When diluting a nebuliser or other medicine, follow that medicine’s own instructions for the correct amount to add.
• Store the bottle at room temperature away from heat and direct sunlight, and keep out of reach of children.

Precautions: Rinscap W Irrigation Sterile Water is intended for external irrigation and dilution purposes only. It must never be given by injection or infused intravenously, and it is not intended for drinking. Use a freshly opened container for each session and discard any unused solution afterwards to reduce the risk of contamination, especially when irrigating an open wound.

When to See a Doctor or Pharmacist: Speak with a doctor or pharmacist if a wound being irrigated shows signs of infection, such as increasing redness, swelling, warmth, pus, or fever, or if you are unsure of the correct way to use this product to dilute a prescribed inhalation or nebuliser medicine. Seek medical advice before using it on a wound in an infant or on a wound that is deep, large, or not healing as expected.
