What is Risedronate?

Risedronate is a generic drug prescribed to prevent bone loss in patients with osteoporosis or with conditions that put them at risk for osteoporosis, such as menopause, steroid drugs, or Paget's disease, which is similar to osteoporosis.

Osteoporosis is a condition in which bones lose density and strength and so become vulnerable to fractures (breaks). The body's bones, besides providing structural strength, are also repositories of minerals, such as calcium, that are important to many of the body's functions. It is normal for bone cells, called osteoclasts, to remove calcium and other minerals from the bone. Osteoporosis happens when more minerals are removed from the bones than are replaced.

Risedronate works by blocking the action of cells in the bone that absorb bone back into the body. Risedronate also causes the death of some of these cells.

Risedronate is administered as a tablet or oral solution. Risedronate is taken anywhere from once daily to once monthly. The dose and schedule can vary depending on the nature and severity of the underlying condition.

What are the side effects of Risedronate?

While not a complete list, the most common side effects of Risedronate are heartburn, upset stomach, stomach pain, back pain, joint pain, neck pain, muscle pain, chest pain, pain under the ribs, constipation, diarrhea, nausea, and flu symptoms. Because Risedronate prevents the re-absorption of calcium from the bones back into the body, low blood calcium levels are a common side effect. Symptoms of low blood calcium include muscle spasms, numbness, and tingling. Allergic reactions are uncommon.
