Tiludronate is a bisphosphonate bone resorption inhibitor. Tiludronate inhibits protein-tyrosine-phosphatase, leading to detachment of osteoclasts from the bone surface. It also inhibits the osteoclastic proton pump and is used to treat Paget′s disease.

Bisphosphonates, potent anti-osteoclastic agents, are nowadays the first-line therapy for Paget's disease of bone. Solid evidence about efficacy and the risk/benefit ratio favor tiludronate and risedronate for oral administration and pamidronate for intravenous administration. Treatment is always intermittent, with the
The efficacy of n-lauryl-beta-D-maltopyranoside, (dodecylmaltoside, DDM) as a permeability-enhancer for tiludronate and cromolyn (BCS Class III, water-soluble compounds with oral bioavailability < 5%) was evaluated in Caco-2 cell monolayers and rat intestinal sacs. In Caco-2 cells samples were collected over
This is the second of a two-part unit on Paget's disease. Part 1 outlined the epidemiology, pathophysiology, causes and clinical features of the condition. This part outlines advice on diagnosis, drug therapy, surgery, other management options and emotional support.
Nanocrystalline apatites (NCA) are the inorganic components of mineralized tissues and they have been recently proposed as biomaterials for drug delivery systems. Bisphosphonates (BPs) are currently the reference drugs used to treat diseases involving bone disorders such as osteoporosis. Nevertheless

This study assessed the feasibility of measuring tiludronate in horses using a minimally invasive bone biopsy technique. Eight horses were treated with intravenous (IV) tiludronate [1 mg/kg bodyweight (BW)], either once (n = 4) or twice, 28 d apart (n
