Nausea with oral fosamax/actonal will reclast cause same?

Posted by sandybay @sandybay, 22 hours ago

Has anyone had nausea and / or dizziness with fosamax or actonal and gone on and done reclast without the same issue?

Doc seems to think it's "digestion" related, but I'm not convinced. Takes about 6+ weeks of the weekly pill to bring on the nausea/dizziness.

Now he is pushing reclast- saying it'll be different. I'm afraid of long term feeling awful.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Osteoporosis & Bone Health Support Group.

It's possible you won't experience the nausea with Reclast since it's administered through IV and doesn't go through your digestive system. Hard to say whether you will still have dizziness or not. It's worth a try. I was on Reclast for 3 years before switching to Actonel just this past year. So far, no problems. Good luck!!
