I don't think there are any contraindications specifically. Alendronic acid is poorly absorbed so should be taken strictly according to the patient information sheet.
It can cause irritation of the oesophagus.
I have taken alendronic acid for two years now following diagnosis of CD and osteoporosis. As long as you follow the "keeping upright" instructions, no side effects - at least on my part - at all.
i have taken it for 8 yrs now and was diagnosed celiec 2yrs ago and have no side affect i 2 have ostaropes gl
The advice of keeping upright is sensible...plus weight bearing exercise..and eating well.
If this keeps just one of you from breaking a bone..then its worth it.
I have never been right since breaking tib, fib and ankle in 2005.
Yes, this does apply to both the guys as well as the ladies....
