Can someone tell why Tylenol seems to be the go-to with the Reclast, instead of Aleve? Tylenol never worked for me when I've needed relief.

@tinylu
It looks as if there could be an interaction between Aleve and Reclast so it's best to discuss this with your doctor first. You can search for Aleve and Reclast interactions and will find information, but here is one from drugs.com:

It is not recommended to take Aleve (a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug) with Reclast (zoledronic acid) due to the increased risk of gastrointestinal issues. Consult your healthcare provider for safer alternatives for pain relief.

@tinylu, it is because of the risk to the kidneys with both medications.
