Adronil 150mg tablet is a medication that contains the active ingredient Alendronate, which belongs to a class of drugs called bisphosphonates. It works by slowing down the activity of osteoclasts, the cells that break down bone tissue, and therefore helps to increase bone density and reduce the risk of fractures.
Adronil 150mg tablets are used in the treatment and prevention of osteoporosis, a condition where the bones become thin and fragile, making them more likely to break. It is usually taken once a week, in the morning, on an empty stomach, with a full glass of water. It is important to remain upright for at least 30 minutes after taking the tablet, as lying down can increase the risk of side effects.
Common side effects of Adronil 150mg tablets may include nausea, stomach pain, diarrhea, and constipation. Rare side effects may include severe bone, joint, or muscle pain, jaw pain, and eye problems. It is important to inform your healthcare provider of any other medications you are taking before starting treatment with Adronil, as it can interact with certain medications.
Adronil 150mg tablets are available in a pack size of 1 x 1 tablet. The duration of treatment will depend on the individual's medical history and condition. It is important to follow your healthcare provider's instructions and attend regular check-ups to monitor your bone density and response to treatment.
