Alendronate Generic Fosamax 70mg

Hello, been on Alendronate 70mg 4 weeks. Stopped taking it two weeks ago. Chiro told me his father fractured vertebrae. All I have read is negative feedback about this drug. Is there any positive feedback on this website about it? Has anyone taken this with good results?

Hi, Ev! How are you?

The thing you have to remember when reading experiences, and reviews online is that most people don't go looking online for a site like this, unless they've had a bad experience. There are many that take a medication without problems, but they don't look for a site like this to find more information, or see if other's have had similar experiences.

That said, you are correct in that most of them regarding Fosamax are negative, many people experience problematic side effects, and have to stop taking it. Thus, in many cases, the risks, and annoyances far outweigh any possible benefits.

People typically experience side effects, such as joint/muscle aches, headache, diarrhea, stomach pain, bloating, and muscle cramping.

Ref: Alendronate information

Can anyone chime in with their personal experiences?
