Re: cheap osteoporosis drug found to reduce spread to bone by 56%

Is this any different from the drugs already available, and the hoopla about 4 years ago stating they were almost miraculous, now warnings about bone fractures, esophageal cancer, and osteonecrosis of the jaw? Or is it a completely different drug?

Re: cheap osteoporosis drug found to reduce spread to bone by 56%

Anne dunno what is the name of the drug you are referring too? this one is called bonefos. Truth is I just saw it and thought i would post it for those with bony lesions or osteo prob from homonal treatment: i have neither of those so i am not knowledgeable on the question and doing my research on how to save my lungs at the mo..please feel free to bring better research to that post, i think i will stop posting when i do not know more about it. but the news and the study there are referring to dates from 2011 and a simple search does not lead me to the critic you are mentioning. Can you elaborate for others?

Best
