About Alendrate 70mg Tablet

ALENDRONIC ACID belongs to the group of fortified bisphosphonates used in the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis and Paget’s disease of the bone. Osteoporosis is a condition in which bones become weak and brittle. Paget’s disease of the bone is a disorder in which the replacement of old bone cells by new bone cells is disrupted and dysregulated. 

ALENDRONIC ACID contains Alendronic acid which promotes bone integrity by regulating bone cell turnover and preventing bone cell destruction by suppressing the activity of osteoclasts. ALENDRONIC ACID strengthens bones, thereby reducing the risk of fractures.

Take ALENDRONIC ACID as prescribed. In some cases, ALENDRONIC ACID may cause side effects such as muscle or joint pain, nausea, indigestion, gas and headache. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if these side effects persist or worsen. 

It is advisable to inform the doctor if you are allergic to any of its components. Keep your doctor informed if you suffer from any oesophageal disorders, jaw problems, peptic ulcer disease, kidney disease, low blood calcium, low Vitamin D, if you are a smoker or have had a history of smoking, or if you have been immobilised for some time and are unable to sit upright. Consult your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Medicinal Benefits of Alendrate 70mg Tablet

ALENDRONIC ACID contains Alendronic acid, a bisphosphonate used to treat osteoporosis. It is used primarily to strengthen bones, joints, muscles and in the treatment of bone disease. ALENDRONIC ACID works by preventing bone destruction and resorption, thereby retaining the normal density of bones. It slows down the activity of bone-destroying cells (osteoclasts), which tend to be in overdrive in case of bone diseases such as osteoporosis and Paget’s. Hence, ALENDRONIC ACID is useful in strengthening and restoring the integrity and health of weak bones.

Directions for Use

ALENDRONIC ACID should be swallowed as a whole with a glass of water. Do not crush, chew or break it. ALENDRONIC ACID should always be taken on an empty stomach, preferably 30 minutes before food or beverages for better absorption. Take ALENDRONIC ACID while sitting upright or standing. Try staying upright and do not lie down for 30 minutes after taking ALENDRONIC ACID. Do not take ALENDRONIC ACID at bedtime or just before waking up.
