Zidoval is an antibiotic gel primarily used to treat bacterial vaginosis infection. Its active ingredient is Metronidazole.
Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is an infection resulting in a greyish-white and watery vaginal discharge. Interestingly, 50% of women might not experience symptoms, making it challenging to diagnose based on symptoms alone.
While BV isn't classified as an STI, it can be triggered by sexual intercourse, especially with multiple partners or a new partner. Other potential causes include having an STI or using perfumed soaps in the genital area. However, even women who aren't sexually active can get BV.
While the exact cause of BV is unknown, you may be at a higher risk of BV if you:
Bacterial vaginosis is not a serious condition, but you should still seek treatment. If left unchecked, BV can cause complications in pregnancy and increase your risk of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID).
Zidoval contains Metronidazole, an antibiotic that combats anaerobic bacteria responsible for BV. It works by altering the bacteria's DNA, preventing them from reproducing, thereby halting the infection's spread.
Zidoval gel takes up to to 5 days to work for bacterial vaginosis infection.
If your symptoms do not improve after completing the 5 days treatment course, speak to your doctor.
Zidoval gel comes with disposable applicators, which are used to insert the gel into your vagina. The gel is usually used once a day for 5 days. You should apply the gel at bedtime.
It is important to use Zidoval gel at the same time each day. If you have difficulty remembering when to take medicines, set a reminder on your phone or smart speaker. You can also store your medicine in a place which will remind you when to take it.
Before you use Zidoval gel, it is important to wash your hands with soap and water.
You should use a new applicator for every dose of Zidoval gel. Do not reuse the applicators.
After applying Zidoval gel, wash your hands with soap and water.
You should repeat these steps for 5 consecutive days. If you do not feel better after completing the 5 days course, speak to your doctor.
If you forget to use Zidoval gel when you should, skip the missed dose and apply it at your next bedtime.
Do not use more Zidoval gel to make up for the missed dose.
If you accidentally use more Zidoval gel than you should, seek advice from your doctor or a pharmacist.
Do not use more Zidoval gel than you should. Using more Zidoval gel will not clear your infection faster but may increase your risk of side effects.
Zidoval may not be suitable for everyone, and there are certain precautions and warnings to be aware of. Below are some essential considerations to keep in mind:
Before you use Zidoval Gel, read the enclosed patient information leaflet. You should keep this leaflet throughout your course of treatment in case you need to refer to it again.

This is not an exhaustive list of side effects. Further information regarding the safety of Zidoval gel, including a complete list of side effects, can be found inside the leaflet which comes with your medicine.
If you experience any side effects, regardless of whether they are listed above or in the patient information leaflet, inform your doctor or a pharmacist for advice.

If you experience the signs and symptoms of an allergic reaction, stop using Zidoval gel and seek immediate medical attention by going straight to your nearest A&E department.
