Here's a tip for taking Fosamax. If you wait 2 hours before eating breakfast, you can gain an extra 40% absorption as compared to only waiting 30 minutes. This is called out in the Fosamax medication insert. One other thing to consider would be only drinking low calcium water (reverse osmosis or distilled) for those two hours to avoid calcium in the water.

You seem to know a lot about this disease are you a doctor? There is a lot of terminology that is being used that I am not aware of. Is there a particular site that I can go to to become familiar with all of these terms and tests that some these people talk about. I only know that I am -4.3 and age 72, I am taking 80 mg tymlos daily by injection. Any help would be great!
Does the amount of water you drink to take the pill affect its efficacy?

Thank you, I will try that extra wait.
