What is Zidoval for?
Zidoval is an effective gel that clears the vaginal infection bacterial vaginosis, a common condition that often occurs in women between the ages of 19 and 60.
Some women may not want to take oral tablets, or cannot take them, or may experience side effects with Metronidazole in tablet form and therefore may prefer to buy Zidoval gel for BV online from Medical Specialists®.
BV can often reoccur within 3-12 months, and you may need to order Zidoval online again in the future after your symptoms have cleared.
How does Zidoval work?
The 0.75% Metronidazole antibiotic within Zidoval Vaginal Gel kills off bacteria by interfering with its DNA. The medication kills a type of bacteria known as ‘anaerobic bacteria’. This type of bacterial can multiply even without oxygen and it is this that causes the BV infection.
If you are experiencing symptoms that you think could be BV but are not sure, you can buy the Cantestest vaginal test without a prescription for discrete and rapid next day delivery.
How to use Zidoval
When you buy Metronidazole Gel for BV, according to the Patient Information Leaflet (PIL), it should be used for 5 consecutive days to cure the infection. Not using the gel for the full course may risk the infection being left untreated, or quickly returning.
To use Zidoval for BV, 1 x 5g application should be inserted into the vagina once daily at bedtime, for 5 days.
What are the possible side effects of Zidoval?
Please note: ALTHOUGH THERE IS LESS RISK OF A REACTION COMPARED TO METRONIDAZOLE TABLETS, YOU SHOULD STILL AVOID ALCOHOL WHEN USING THE GEL AND FOR 24 HOURS AFTER FINISHING YOUR COURSE.
Side effects are rare, and most people don’t get any. Possible side effects may vary from one person to the next, as with any medication. You should always read the manufacturer’s Patient Information Leaflet (PIL) before using this or any other medication.
This will give you important instructions on how and when to use the medication, as well as any possible side effects of the drug.
