1. What is Alendronic Acid Weekly Davur 70 mg Tablets and What is it Used For

What is Alendronic Acid Weekly Davur?

Alendronic Acid Weekly Davur is a tablet that contains the active ingredient alendronic acid (commonly known as alendronate) and belongs to a group of non-hormonal medications called bisphosphonates. It prevents bone loss that occurs in women after menopause and helps to rebuild bone. Alendronic acid reduces the risk of fractures of the spine and hip.

What is Alendronic Acid Weekly Davur used for?

Your doctor has prescribed alendronic acid to treat your osteoporosis. It reduces the risk of hip fractures.

Alendronic Acid Weekly Davur is a weekly treatment

What is osteoporosis?

Osteoporosis is a thinning and weakening of the bones. It is common in women after menopause. During menopause, the ovaries stop producing the female hormone estrogen, which helps to maintain a woman's healthy skeleton. As a result, bone loss occurs and the bones become weaker. The earlier a woman reaches menopause, the greater her risk of osteoporosis.

Usually, osteoporosis does not have symptoms before menopause. However, if left untreated, it can result in broken bones. Although these usually hurt, vertebral fractures may go unnoticed until they cause loss of height. Bones can break during normal daily activities, such as getting up, or from minor injuries that would not normally break a normal bone. Fractures of bones usually occur in the hip, spine, or wrist and can cause not only pain but also significant problems such as a hunched posture (widow's hump) and loss of mobility.

How can osteoporosis be treated?

In addition to your treatment with this medication, your doctor may suggest that you make lifestyle changes to help your condition, such as:

Stopping smokingIt appears that smoking increases the rate at which you lose bone and, therefore, may increase your risk of broken bones.

ExerciseAs muscles, bones need exercise to stay strong and healthy. Consult your doctor before starting any exercise program.

Eating a balanced dietYour doctor may advise you on your diet or whether you should take any dietary supplements (especially calcium and vitamin D).
