Zidoval Vaginal Gel is a topical antibiotic treatment designed to target the cause of bacterial vaginosis (BV). It contains metronidazole 7.5 mg\/g, an antimicrobial agent effective against anaerobic bacteria, the most common contributors to BV. When applied intravaginally, Zidoval delivers a high concentration of metronidazole directly to the site of infection, disrupting bacterial DNA synthesis and leading to the death of harmful microorganisms.
\nBacterial vaginosis occurs when the natural balance of bacteria in the vagina is disrupted, leading to an overgrowth of anaerobic species. Zidoval helps restore that balance by eliminating the pathogenic bacteria while allowing healthy lactobacilli to repopulate. Because it is applied locally, the treatment minimises systemic absorption and reduces the likelihood of gastrointestinal side effects compared to oral antibiotics.<\/p>\n
Zidoval is a first-line treatment for bacterial vaginosis and is often prescribed for women who experience recurrent symptoms or who prefer not to take oral medications. Its once-daily application is convenient and discreet, with the gel administered at bedtime for five consecutive nights.
\nKey benefits of Zidoval include:<\/p>\n
Direct, targeted treatment for bacterial vaginosis<\/p>\n
Lower risk of systemic side effects than oral metronidazole<\/p>\n
Once-daily dosing schedule<\/p>\n
Suitable during pregnancy under medical supervision<\/p>\n
Fast symptom relief typically within two to three days<\/p>\n
The gel format is non-greasy, clear, and odourless, making it comfortable and easy to use. Zidoval is also appropriate before certain gynaecological procedures where bacterial imbalance could interfere with outcomes, such as IVF or IUD placement.<\/p>\n
Zidoval should be used exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Avoid use during menstruation and do not engage in vaginal intercourse during the treatment course, as the gel may weaken latex-based condoms or diaphragms. Alcohol should be avoided during and for at least 48 hours after treatment to prevent unwanted interactions. If symptoms do not resolve after the full course or return frequently, seek medical guidance to explore alternative or extended therapy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
