AURO-ALENDRONATE 10mg

Auro-Alendronate 10mg contains the active ingredient alendronic acid, a bisphosphonate used to treat and prevent osteoporosis in postmenopausal women and men, as well as to manage certain conditions related to bone loss.

Alendronate works by inhibiting the activity of osteoclasts, the cells responsible for bone resorption, which helps to maintain or increase bone density and reduce the risk of fractures.

The 10mg dosage is typically prescribed for daily use. It is important to take the medication on an empty stomach, first thing in the morning, with a full glass of water, and to remain upright for at least 30 minutes afterward to ensure proper absorption and to reduce the risk of gastrointestinal irritation. Regular follow-up with a healthcare provider is recommended to monitor bone health and manage any potential side effects, such as gastrointestinal discomfort or, rarely, jaw problems.
