Reclast Infusions: Side-effects & Recovery time
Osteoporosis & Bone Health | Last Active: 2 days ago | Replies (567)Comment receiving replies
I recently had a Reclast infusion and had the expected reactionfor about 4 days. Feeling better, I did a 30 minute walk and a light workout. The next day I had extreme all over my body, tightness in my head, and my feet were very swollen and sore. At this point, I don’t want to due another infusion due my reaction and some of the bizarre reactions I am seeing on this thread. Sure there is a better treatment.

I’m so sorry you are having these symptoms. I wish I had better news to share with you. I had the Reclast infusion 10 months ago and am still experiencing the exact symptoms you described after activities. I have been on medical leave from work since March. It turned my life upside down. I am continuing to walk 2 miles 2 times per week, with yoga in between and weight resistance once per week.
I have to plan to be in pain afterwards and cut back when it becomes overwhelming. I’m also still experiencing brain fog. I do have good days now but it’s unpredictable. I will not do another infusion or take any of the horrible drugs. I wish you a better long term experience and please keep me updated. Perhaps we can help each other 😊

After about 5-6 days after my Reclast, with the help of rest and Tylenol or Advil, I was fine and had no more side effects of which I was aware. They do say that each time the side effects are less. It was also recommended to slow the infusion to 30 minutes instead of 15 (since it was my first time, and to take 1000 mgs of Tylenol. They gave me Benadryl beforehand to forestall any possible allergic reaction. Best of luck and hope your side effects have abated. .
