Osteoporosis medicines?

most effective

My mother has osteoporosis and I know how it can impact daily living. Some of the medicines used to treat osteoporosis include Bisphosphonates like Fosamax, Boniva, Actonel and Reclast. It鈥檚 difficult to say which one is the most effective because every woman鈥檚 body reacts to medicines differently. I鈥檇 suggest visiting the following website to view a full list of osteoporosis medications and compare these different medicines: http://www.nof.org/patientinfo/medicatio...


Prevention is always important in combating osteoporosis. A read an interesting article of ways to prevent osteoporosis by doing daily exercises and making sure your diet includes calcium and Vitamin D from the sun鈥檚 rays. You can find that article here: http://www.womans-health.net/osteoporosi... It contains some very helpful tips and suggests to prevent osteoporosis in women. The article also contains dietary suggestions on what items to include in your diet.

Hope this helps!
