I quit taking fosamax after three years and a minimal amount of bone gain. Currently taking collagen and it's helped me about the same as fosamax in a year. I'm
opting for collagen and weight bearing exercise for now.
Best of luck to you .

I appreciate your response. You are the first not to push any drugs after your fosamax. I received Dr. K. McCormick book on the whole body approach. As I am 80 I really feel at this age it’s not safe to add additional drugs to my body. I’ve considered collegian which may or may not be effective, but that’s ok. I’m still proceeding along in my research. Thanks.

Can you tell me why you stopped taking fosmax please .
I have spinal osteoporosis and am frighted to take prolia .

Are you able to give the precise methods and quantities of collagen and exercise that you use to combat the loss of bone? I am having to take electrosol because of breast cancer. The side effect is bone loss. I already have osteoporosis so I am in need of something to build up my bones. I don’t want to take Fosamax and initially I was supposed to do prolea but I rejected that! I am 65 and had my first annual post cancer check up in December. I am cancer free!
Thank you!

Thinking of you and hoping you could share your "collagen" as so confusing!!!
