Do other "bone meds" also not allow DEAD BONE to exit the body? I am on generic Fosamax, so far no problems, I am aware of. Have not had a bone scan since being on the med. I consulted 2 Orthopedic doctors before I started the generic Fosamax. Do notice popping in lower back when turning, twisting etc. Thank you for all you share with us.

@pattitoo how long have you been on Fosamax? More than one year? It's good to have a repeat bone density test done to see if the drug is doing its job.

Any of the biphosphonate drugs (of which Fosomax is one) tend to leave old bone in the bone, not leaving room for new bone growth.... which in long run causes brittle bones that break easier. Lots of research out there that shows that’s true.
