INTRODUCTION Osteoporosis develops and progresses in a considerable number of kidney transplant patients. Bisphosphonates, which are used for prevention and treatment of osteoporosis, may accentuate gasterointestinal complications and lead to more nonadherence to treatment. This randomized clinical trial was conducted to compare the effect of pamidronate versus alendronate on early bone mineral...
Alendronate is a potent inhibitor of bone resorption. To investigate the relationship between antiresorptive activity and bone-related side effects, we studied the effect of 2 months of daily alendronate (0.04, 0.2, 1.0 or 5.0 mg/kg/day) treatment on the strength of the femoral shaft and neck and on the bone mass of ovariectomized rats. The p.o. administration regimen began immediately after ov...
Alendronate and risedronate, the two oral bisphosphonates approved in the United States for preventing and treating osteoporosis, have never been compared in direct head-to-head trials, but they appear to have similar pharmacokinetics, drug interactions, adverse effect profiles, and efficacy. Alendronate, however, can be given as a once-weekly dose, whereas risedronate is not yet available in t...
BACKGROUND This study investigates the effect of alendronate-treated osteoblasts, as well as the effect of low-level laser therapy (LLLT) on the alendronate-treated osteoblasts. Bisphosphonate decreases the osteoblastic activity. Various treatment modalities are used to enhance the bisphosphonate-treated osteoblasts; however, there were no cell culture studies conducted using a low-level laser....
OBJECTIVE To assess the efficacies of once-weekly bisphosphonates on bone mineral density (BMD) gains in Korean women aged 50 years or more. METHODS We selected 166 patients who received: alendronate 70 mg (n=48), alendronate 70 mg + cholecalciferol 2,800 IU (n=31) or risedronate 35 mg (n=87) for one year. The baseline BMD and the % changes of BMD at one-year were compared among the three med...
OBJECTIVE Alendronate is a second generation bisphosphonate which has been widely used in medical practice for two decades to treat osteoporosis and prevent fragility fractures both in elderly people and in younger patients. METHODS Since many papers have been recently published and new formulations or dosages have been developed, our aim was to review the most significant medical literature ...
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the efficacy of orally-administered alendronate compared with intravenously-administered zoledronate. METHODS This prospective study was carried out at Barts Health HNS Trust between April 2010 and March 2012. This study compares changes in bone mineral density (BMD) in 234 patients treated with 2 bisphosphonates: alendronate taken orally, and zoledronate administered i...
BACKGROUND Osteoporotic vertebral fractures adversely impact quality of life and also increase the risk of infection and mortality. Alendronate treatment increases bone mass and reduces the risk of fractures in patients with osteoporosis by suppressing bone resorption. We investigated the relationship between alendronate treatment and infection-related death in patients with osteoporotic verteb...
OBJECTIVES Once weekly dosing of alendronate has been shown to provide equivalent efficacy to once daily dosing for treatment of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women. Whether patients will prefer weekly dosing to daily dosing for a chronic condition such as osteoporosis has not been studied. The aim of this international study was to assess preference for the weekly or daily dosing regimen of a...
OBJECTIVES To determine whether alendronate sodium treatment is associated with upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract adverse experiences (AEs)-particularly those of the stomach, duodenum, or esophagus-in the Fracture Intervention Trial, and to assess the relationship between alendronate use and upper GI tract events among women at increased risk for these outcomes. DESIGN Randomized, double-blin...
