What Is Actonel Used For?
The medication Actonel is prescribed for the treatment of
osteoporosis in postmenopausal women. It belongs to a class of drugs known as bisphosphonates and helps to slow down bone loss. Actonel also helps to increase bone density. During osteoporosis, the body removes more bone than it replaces. This makes the bones weaker and increases their risk of fracture and break. Actonel corrects this imbalance by decreasing the increased rate of bone removal. Actonel also helps to reduce the risk of spine and non-spine fractures. Actonel does not relieve pain caused due to osteoporosis. Your doctor may prescribe another medicine specifically for pain relief. Since it is unknown how long Actonel should be continued for treating and preventing osteoporosis, you should regularly discuss with your doctor the need to stay on this medication.
