Regulatory Requirements for Bringing Personal Medicines into Singapore
This guidance document issued by the Centre for Drug Administration, Health Sciences Authority, provides visitors to Singapore with the current regulatory requirements for medicines brought into Singapore for personal use.
[...]
If your medicines contain any controlled substance listed in Appendix A, you are required to apply for a controlled substance permit from the Centre for Drug Administration (CDA), Health Sciences Authority, Singapore, before your travel to Singapore.
Appendix A is listed in that document - I would ask your doctor to confirm whether or not your medicine is on that list. Hope that helps!
