@whiteswan Your husband should check the prescription. When I was prescribed (alendronate) Fosamax the directions were not to eat or drinking anything for 30 minutes after taking the medication. That would include milk, yogurt and any food.

Did you husband's doctor give him instructions on taking Fosamax?

Every doc I’ve talked to says nothing but water for 30 minutes then go ahead and eat or drink normally. But don’t lie down or get horizontal until after you’ve eaten. And make sure the water isn’t flavored or carbonated. Just plain water. At least 8 ounces.
