THERAPEUTIC CLASS
Bisphosphonates are synthetic analogs of pyrophosphate that bind to
the hydroxyapatite found in bone.
FOSAMAX® (alendronate sodium) is a bisphosphonate that acts as a
potent, specific inhibitor of
osteoclast-mediated bone resorption.
Inactive Ingredients: Microcrystalline cellulose, anhydrous lactose,
croscarmellose sodium, magnesium
stearate
INDICATIONS

In postmenopausal women with osteoporosis FOSAMAX is indicated for the
treatment of osteoporosis to
prevent fractures, including those of the hip and spine (vertebral
compression fractures).

FOSAMAX is indicated for the treatment of osteoporosis in men to
increase bone material density.
No available data in the pivotal studies indicated that the incidence
of bone fractures in men is reduced.
DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION
FOSAMAX must be taken at least one-half hour before the first food,
beverage, or medication of the day
with plain water only. Other beverages (including mineral water),
food, and some medications are likely to
reduce the absorption of FOSAMAX (see DRUG INTERACTIONS).
To facilitate delivery to the stomach and thus reduce the potential
for esophageal irritation, FOSAMAX
should only be swallowed upon arising for the day with a full glass of
water and patients should not lie
down for at least 30 minutes and until after their first food of the
day. FOSAMAX should not be taken at
bedtime or before arising for the day. Failure to follow these
instructions may increase the risk of
esophageal adverse experiences (see PRECAUTIONS).
Patients
should
receive
supplemental
calcium
and
vitamin
D,
if
dietary
intake
is
inadequate
(see
PRECAUTIONS).
No dosage adjustment is necessary for the elderly or for patients with
mild-to-moderate renal insufficiency
(creatinine clearance 35 to 60 mL/min). FOSAMAX is not recommended for
patients with more severe
renal insufficiency (creatinine clearance < 35 mL/min, or serum
creatinine > 1.6 mg/dL) due to
