zoldronate risk factors?

Hi , risedronate has only worked on my spine and not my hips for the last 2 years. hips at 16% risk, t_score -3.6.

albeit I have not been taking enough vit D over the last 2 years. I have upped my vit D now, my calcium intake is fine.

Zoledronate has been mentioned but I am wary of the risk of zoldronate maybe causing irregular heartbeat/atrial fibrillation which is mentioned on the patient leaflet.

is anyone taking zoledronate and is it working ok for you ?

many thanks

Sorry lindyloo2018, I don’t know where everyone has gone and I can’t help with your question but hopefully someone who has been taking zolendronate will come along and help you.

Have you tried calling or emailing the ROS helpline, they might be able to help you?

Hi I was on Risonedrate but my reaction was severe so I had to stop it. I am now on Raloxofine which I seem to tolerate well.

Not what you're looking for?
