From:
$11.89
Alendronate Sodium is a prescription medication used to treat and prevent osteoporosis in postmenopausal women and men, as well as to treat Paget’s disease of bone. As a bisphosphonate, it slows bone loss and increases bone density, helping to prevent fractures. By inhibiting osteoclast activity (the cells that break down bone), Fosamax helps strengthen bones and maintain their structure over time.
