The rules for Intuniv (guanfacine)
Atomoxetine, guanfacine and viloxazine are prescription medicines in Malaysia, not controlled drugs. You can bring up to one month's supply in your personal luggage for your own use without an import licence (Poisons Act 1952, s 8(2)(a), page 10). Malaysia's Ministry of Health asks you to show a prescription or doctor's letter on arrival, in English or with a translation, naming the medicine, your dose and the quantity you are carrying. If you are staying longer than a month, the Ministry says to see a registered doctor in Malaysia for further supply.
Maximum supply: 30 days
Permit: Not required.
