Have you had any side effects using Boniva?

Anyone with similar experience ?

I currently take Boniva with no side effects. I also the other medications and no problems. You could also ask your doctor, or your pharmacist. They are pretty knowledgeable. Hope this helps.

I'd like to invite @sophie93, @carolann01 and @oceanblues123 to this discussion to share their experiences with Boniva and some side-effects, if they had any.
I just finished a three-year stint on Boniva. I didn’t always have a reaction, but when I did it was pretty unpleasant. Sometimes I’d become very achy and even feverish overnight after taking it. I got in the habit of taking a couple of Tylenol before going to bed the night after taking the Boniva, and that seemed to do the trick.
I am in the 3rd month of monthly generic Boniva. I’ve only had very minor gastrointestinal side-effects; however, recently I’ve been experiencing almost nightly dream terrors (nightmares), and would like to know if anyone else has had this problem. Generic Boniva is the only drug recently added to my regiment.
