What pack sizes does Ventamol Expectorant come in?

It is supplied in a pack size of 100ml. Choose the pack size you need from the options shown on this page before adding the item to your cart.

Why is there no information here about what Ventamol Expectorant 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 Ventamol Expectorant?

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 Ventamol Expectorant 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 Ventamol Expectorant?

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 Ventamol Expectorant 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 Ventamol Expectorant 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

Ventamol Expectorant is a healthcare product with Salbutamol (as sulfate) and Guaifenesin declared as its active content. It is supplied in a pack size of 100ml.

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

Shake the bottle well before each use, measure the dose accurately using the measuring cup or spoon provided rather than a household spoon, and take it orally as directed on the label or by a pharmacist or doctor. It can be taken with or without food, and plenty of fluids should be taken throughout the day to help the expectorant work more effectively.

Dosage

Dosing for Ventamol Expectorant depends on the patient’s age and the strength of the specific formulation, so the product label or a pharmacist’s advice should always be followed; adults typically take a measured dose two to three times a day, while children require a lower, age-appropriate dose measured with the device provided. Do not exceed the recommended dose or frequency, and do not use for more than the short period advised without checking with a pharmacist or doctor.

Shelf Life

When stored correctly and unopened, Ventamol Expectorant is generally stable until the expiry date printed on the bottle and carton; once opened, it is best used within the period stated by the manufacturer, and the expiry date should be checked before each use.

Storage Instructions

Store below 30°C in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, keep the bottle tightly capped after use, and do not refrigerate or freeze unless the label specifically states to do so. Keep out of the reach and sight of children.

Side Effects

Shakiness or tremors
Headache
Increased heart rate
Nervousness or restlessness

Uncontrolled hyperthyroidism
A persistent or chronic cough (such as from smoking, asthma or emphysema) that has not been evaluated by a doctor
Use in children below the age recommended on the product label without pharmacist or doctor guidance

Drug / Food Interactions

Beta-blocker medicines: can reduce the bronchodilating effect of the salbutamol component
Other stimulant medicines, decongestants or additional salbutamol-containing products: additive risk of tremor, palpitations or nervousness
Other cough or cold preparations: check ingredients to avoid inadvertently duplicating salbutamol or other active components
Diuretics or corticosteroids: may add to the risk of low blood potassium if salbutamol is used frequently alongside them

Quick Tips

Always measure the dose with the cup or spoon provided rather than an ordinary kitchen spoon, for accuracy
Drink plenty of water throughout the day to help the expectorant loosen mucus more effectively
Avoid taking other salbutamol-containing products, such as an inhaler, at the same time without checking with a pharmacist
Do not drive or operate machinery until you know how this medicine affects you, as it can cause tremor or dizziness
See a pharmacist or doctor if your cough lasts more than a week, worsens, or is accompanied by fever, chest pain, or blood in the phlegm

Relevant Information

Ventamol Expectorant is intended for the short-term relief of a chesty cough with mucus and mild wheeze, and is not a substitute for prescribed asthma controller treatment if you have been diagnosed with persistent asthma. Because it contains salbutamol, anyone already using a salbutamol inhaler or other bronchodilator should check with a pharmacist before also taking this syrup, to avoid exceeding the recommended total daily dose of salbutamol.
