After having a bad fracture of my right tib and fib and messed up knee in January. I was sent a form to have a bone density scan. I had a few fractures b4. Wrists, ankles etc. I have osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. To cut it short. I have been prescribed AA also Colecaliferol. After reading all reviews on here, I am wondering if its worth taking! The side effects look like they outweigh the benefits. I am 72 and am on enough tablets for different things, enough to put an elephant into a raving looney tiz. I will have a think about this, I suffer heartburn anyway. So don't need any more.

Hi! I had AA and couldn’t take it but there are a lot of people who I imagine will tell you that they are fine with it. You will only know if you try it. Your Dr or Consultant must thinknyou need it or they wouldn’t give you it.
