I would definitely ask for a slower than the recommended 15 minute infusion. My doctor ordered the infusion to be over one hour. I made sure to drink plenty of water before and after the infusion. One thing I learned afterward that I would like to pass on to everyone is that the person administering the infusion is supposed to flush the tubing, when the "piggy back " (small bag, holding the medicine) is finished, before removing the IV so that you get the full amount of medication. I was not quick enough and she removed the IV before I could stop her. I figure if I am going to go through with this treatment, I want to get all of the 5mg. This may seem like a small thing, but it is the correct way to administer the medication. I got Reclast as a transition drug from Prolia. I do have muscle and joint pain with the Reclast, but not the severe pain that I had after my second injection of Prolia.
Good Luck

Thank you. This sounds like very good advice.

good idea- I didn't think that it was possible to get a partial infusion.
