WHAT OPTINATE IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
WHAT OPTINATE IS
Optinate belongs to a group of non-hormonal medicines called
bisphosphonates which are used to treat
bone diseases. It works directly on your bones to make them stronger
and therefore less likely to
break.
Bone is a living tissue. Old bone is constantly removed from your
skeleton and replaced with new
bone.
Postmenopausal osteoporosis is a condition occurring in women after
the menopause where the bones
become weaker, more fragile and more likely to break after a fall or
strain.
Osteoporosis is more likely to occur in women who have reached the
menopause early and also in
patients treated long-term with steroids.
The spine, hip and wrist are the most likely bones to break, although
this can happen to any bone in
your body. Osteoporosis –related fractures can also cause back pain,
height loss and a curved back.
Many patients with osteoporosis have no symptoms and you may not even
have known that you had it.
WHAT OPTINATE IS USED FOR
The treatment of osteoporosis

in postmenopausal women
The prevention of osteoporosis

in women with an increased risk of osteoporosi
