Reclast infusion side effects?
Osteoporosis & Bone Health | Last Active: 3 hours ago | Replies (8)Comment receiving replies
I’ve been in here a million times describing the horrible side effects I’ve had from Reclast. It’s been six months and still having problems.
I did see my Endocrinologist and all she would say is how sorry she was that this happened to me and that this is a very strong drug and she would not have me do it again. As if I would even consider it!
So she did not specifically admit this drug caused me all these issues. But she didn’t deny it either.

What side effects have you had? I had the infusion in my left arm and after 4 months I started having pain in my left arm. Unable to move arm high or backwards to put on coat. I have been taking Motrin which I think has helped. I have put ice pack on it for a while a few days.
I am sorry you are going thru this, like myself. We trust our doctors that these meds will work for us and not against us.

If you feel that you are suffering from these medications long term to report that to FDA.
For on-line reporting to FDA: https://www.fda.gov/safety/medwatch-fda-safety-information-and-adverse-event-reporting-program
For phone reporting: 1-800-FDA-1088.
There is a lot of information online on Reclast side effects- drugs.com, the FDA and Pfizer's own drug insert: https://labeling.pfizer.com/ShowLabeling.aspx?format=PDF&id=4676
In addition to the brief info below, Pfizer has a thorough chart with every side effect and frequency reported. Not sure why doctors don't look at this.
