Separately, officers raided a unit in the vicinity of Potong Pasir Avenue 1.
CNB said officers had to force their way in as the suspects refused to open the door.
Three people in the unit were arrested - a 49-year-old suspected drug trafficker and two drug abusers aged 42 and 52. The suspected drug trafficker is allegedly known to the two male suspects arrested in Geylang.
Officers also recovered about 74g of heroin, 58g of Ice, 2g of cannabis and two ecstasy tablets, said CNB.
Investigations into the drug activities of all the suspects are ongoing.

According to CNB, 1,519g of cannabis is enough to feed the addiction of more than 210 abusers for a week, while 325g of Ice can feed the addiction of about 180 abusers for a week.
