ACTONEL weekly
Risedronic acid
-
ACTONEL weekly, Risedronic acid - Actonel once a week belongs to a group of non-hormonal medicines called bisphosphonates, which are used to treat certain bone diseases. Actonel works by slowing down the process of old bone being removed, allowing the bone-forming cells time to rebuild normal bone, making them stronger and therefore less likely to fracture.
FOSAMAX
Alendronate sodium
-
Fosamax - This drug works by binding to cells (osteoclasts) that reabsorb old bone cells. By decreasing the rate of reabsorption, the body can add bone mass faster than it would normally be taken away in some bone diseases. As alendronate sodium is then incorporated into the new bone (where it is inactive), it must be taken for as long as the results are desired.
