Description
Indications
Risedronate tablets and delayed-release (long-acting tablets), are employed for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis. This medication is also utilized in the treatment of osteoporosis in both men and women who are undergoing glucocorticoid therapy and for the treatment of Paget’s disease of bone. Risedronate belongs to a class of medications known as bisphosphonates, operating by inhibiting bone breakdown and enhancing bone density (thickness).
Uses and Dosage
Administer this medication orally with or immediately following breakfast, as prescribed by your doctor, typically once a week. Select a consistent day of the week that aligns with your schedule, taking it on the same day each week. Avoid taking it at bedtime or while still in bed.
Consume this medication with at least half a glass (4 ounces/120 milliliters) of plain water, refraining from any other beverages. Swallow the tablet whole; do not cut, crush, chew, or suck on it. After ingestion, maintain an upright position (sitting, standing, or walking) and refrain from lying down for at least 30 minutes.
Calcium or iron supplements, mineral-containing vitamins, and products containing calcium/magnesium/aluminum (e.g., antacids, laxatives) may interfere with the absorption of risedronate. Similarly, medications such as quinapril, specific formulations of didanosine (chewable/dispersible buffered tablets or pediatric oral solution), sucralfate, and bismuth subsalicylate may also disrupt absorption. Administer these products at different times of the day from when you take risedronate. Wait at least 30 minutes after taking risedronate before consuming these other products.
Consistently adhere to the medication schedule to maximize its benefits. Remember to take it on the same day each week; marking your calendar with a reminder may be helpful.
Discuss with your doctor the potential risks and benefits associated with long-term use of this medication.
