Osteopor Tablets SpecificationRequires Prescription (YES/NO)YesGenericsAlendronate SodiumUsed ForOsteoporosis How it worksAt the cellular level, alendronate shows preferential localization to sites of bone resorption, specifically under osteoclasts. The osteoclasts adhere normally to the bone surface but lack the ruffled border that is indicative of active resorption. Alendronate does not interfere with osteoclast recruitment or attachment, but it does inhibit osteoclast activity. While incorporated in bone matrix, alendronate is not pharmacologically active. Thus, alendronate must be continuously administered to suppress osteoclasts on newly formed resorption surfaces.Osteopor Tablets Usage And SafetyDosageAlendronate SodiumSide EffectsBody as a Whole:Common: Hypersensitivity reactions including urticaria, transient symptoms of myalgia and malaise. Rare: Angioedema, fever, symptomatic hypocalcemia. Gastrointestinal: Common: Esophagitis, esophageal erosions, esophageal ulcers.
