Can Fosamax be taken in the evening - 1 hr before bed?
I am taking protonix every morning 1 hr before breakfast, and would not feel well all day if I didn't. So the question is, can I take Fosamax later on after breakfast and before lunch, or between lunch and dinner, or even after dinner, 30-60 minutes before going to bed?

Hello, Frumu! How are you?

No, for Fosomax to be effective, the FDA directions say it must be taken upon arising in the morning, at least half an hour before having any other food, beverage or medication, other than plain water.

Its typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, abdominal pain, skin rash and chest pain.

Is there anything else I can help with?
