Risedronate sodium is a bisphosphonate bone resorption inhibitor.
Risedronate sodium is a bisphosphonate bone resorption inhibitor. It has an affinity for hydroxyapatite crystals in bone and acts as an antiresorptive agent and is an inhibitor of farnesyl diphosphate (FPP) synthase, which results in downstream inhibition of osteoclast activity and reduced bone resorption and turnover. Risedronate sodium has been used to treat postmenopausal osteoporosis and Paget′s disease.
Prospective study. To examine the efficacy of teriparatide or bisphosphonate treatment to reduce pedicle screw (PS) loosening after instrumented lumbar posterolateral fusion in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis. Failure of fixation caused by loosening of PSs in osteoporosis is a problem

Preparations of black cohosh extract are sold as dietary supplements marketed to relieve the vasomotor symptoms of menopause, and some studies suggest it may protect against postmenopausal bone loss. Postmenopausal women are also frequently prescribed bisphosphonates, such as risedronate, to

Bisphosphonates are widely used for the treatment of bone pathologies, mainly due to their ability to inhibit osteoclastic activity and thus bone resorption. Yet, their potential effect on bone formation is unclear. Our aim was to determine whether risedronate can

Low persistence with osteoporosis medication is associated with higher fracture risk. Previous studies estimated that 1-year persistence with osteoporosis medication is low. Our aim was to study persistence with osteoporosis medication among patients with long-term follow-up (to 5 years). The InterAction
