Risedronate side effects

Posted by leslie1234 @leslie1234, Sep 17, 2025

Has anyone had a side effect of balance problems or dizziness when taking Risedronate? If so, how long after starting it did the symptoms start? Thank you.

Hi there,
I was very, very interested to read your question regarding Risedronate, balance problems and dizziness. It would be good to know if you have had any answers to this, if you have undertaken any research into these problems.
My wife is taking Risedronate 35 mg once a week and has been experiencing these very problems and we are trying to find out if Risedronate is the culprit.
Many thanks in advance
