I took it years ago when it first came out. It was awful! At first, they had thought it was heart, healthy, and they discovered side effects so they took me off of it. That was on 1995.
I now I hear that the drug lasts in your body for 10 years! jeez! And the side effects! Awful…
Dr Ken Landow has a great video on Fosamax, other drugs and another on Osteoporosis. His YouTube channel is WELLNOWDOCTOR.

If you cannot tolerate Fosamax, your insurance may cover Tymlos, Forteo or Evenity. I feel so much better on Tymlos after fracturing. As I have written frequently, I started with two out of 8 clicks and have been on 7 for a year. You have many options. If your DEXA is not severe, you may have natural ways to help as well.
