Safe Drugs For Osteoporosis

Are there any safe drugs for osteoporosis? Her physician says that there is an injectable drug without the side effects of brittle bones, but I am finding gastro-intestinal side effects for some of those. GI problems are my Mom's primary issue, so I don't want to make that worse. Any safe ones out there?
