I take it - the generic which is Risedronate Sodium. I've been on it for two years with no adverse side effects and an improved DEXA scan.

Hi debhammel.
I just started the risedronate today, so this is good to hear. As usual all the listed possible side effects are a put off, but I know they err on the side of caution with these.
Because I'm on prednisone for AIH, they recommended it.
I have a bone scan scheduled in a year. Can you stop taking risedronate if your bone scan results improve? Or, are you still taking it?
