Why is there no information here about what Xepa Antamin 4mg/5ml Syrup 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 Xepa Antamin 4mg/5ml Syrup?

Can I speak to a doctor or pharmacist about Xepa Antamin 4mg/5ml Syrup before I buy it?

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 Xepa Antamin 4mg/5ml Syrup 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 Xepa Antamin 4mg/5ml Syrup 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

Xepa Antamin 4mg/5ml Syrup is a syrup with Chlorpheniramine Maleate 4mg per 5ml declared as its active content. It is supplied in a pack size of 60ml.

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 and measure the dose accurately using the measuring cup, syringe, or spoon provided, rather than an ordinary household spoon. Xepa Antamin 4mg/5ml Syrup can be taken with or without food, and the dose should be based on the patient’s age as stated on the product label or advised by a pharmacist. Avoid driving or operating machinery after taking this syrup, as it can cause drowsiness.

Dosage

Adults and children aged 12 years and above usually take 5ml (4mg) every 4 to 6 hours as needed, up to a maximum of 6 doses in 24 hours. Children generally need a lower, age-based dose — for example, roughly half the adult dose for children around 6 to 11 years, and an even smaller pharmacist-guided dose for children aged 2 to 5 years — and this syrup is generally not recommended for infants under 2 years unless specifically directed by a doctor. Always confirm the exact paediatric dose against the product label or with a pharmacist before giving it to a child.

Shelf Life

Unopened, Xepa Antamin 4mg/5ml Syrup is generally stable until the expiry date printed on the bottle or carton when stored correctly; once opened, it is best used within the period stated on the label or leaflet, usually a matter of weeks to a few months, so check the packaging for specific guidance.

Storage Instructions

Store below 30°C in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, keep the bottle tightly closed between uses, and do not refrigerate or freeze unless the label specifically says to. Keep this syrup out of the reach and sight of children.

Side Effects

Drowsiness or fatigue
Dry mouth, nose, or throat
Dizziness
Nausea or upset stomach

Contraindications

Narrow-angle glaucoma
Severe prostate enlargement with urinary retention
Acute asthma attack
Use of an MAOI within the past 14 days
Newborn or premature infants, and infants under 2 years unless directed by a doctor

Drug / Food Interactions

Alcohol – increases drowsiness
Other sedating antihistamines, cough and cold products, or sleep aids – additive sedation and risk of double-dosing on antihistamine
MAOIs – may intensify anticholinergic effects
Other anticholinergic medicines – added dry mouth, blurred vision, constipation
CNS depressants such as sedatives or muscle relaxants – increased drowsiness
Other paediatric cold/flu/allergy syrups – check for duplicate antihistamine content before combining

Quick Tips

Always shake the bottle before use
Use the measuring device provided, not a kitchen spoon, for accurate dosing
Give the dose based on the child’s age as per the label, not by guesswork
Avoid alcohol when taking this syrup
Watch for excessive drowsiness or unusual excitability in children and seek advice if it occurs

Relevant Information

Xepa Antamin 4mg/5ml Syrup contains chlorpheniramine maleate, a long-established antihistamine commonly used in liquid form for children and adults who prefer not to take tablets. Pregnant or breastfeeding women, elderly patients, and those with asthma, glaucoma, prostate problems, or liver or kidney conditions should check with a pharmacist or doctor before use, and parents should always confirm the correct paediatric dose before giving it to a child. Severe allergic reactions with breathing difficulty, facial or throat swelling, or widespread hives require urgent medical attention rather than self-treatment with this syrup.
