OSE AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Alendronate must be taken at least 30 minutes 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 alendronate (see SECTION 4.5

alendronate should only be swallowed upon arising for the day with a
full glass of water and patients

to follow these instructions
may increase the risk of oesophageal adverse expe
