| Rating | Reason | Side Effects | Comments | Sex | Age | Time Taken and Dosage | Date Added | |
| 1 | ospeopenia in my hip | Acid reflux, heartburn, irritable bowl syndrome - alternating constipation and diahrea, loose bowels, muscle pains, worsening migraines. | Stop taking this immediately. The side effects are horrible the more you read about it. I'm still trying to work it out of my system after I stopped taking it about 2 months ago when I realized it was the cause of my symptoms. My doctor put me on this medication because of a slight loss of bone density in my hip caused by Aromasin that I have been taking for breast cancer. Now I take a full regimen of a bone building multi vitamin (containing calcium, boron, magnesium), Vitamin D3 (lots), Vitamin K, Stronthium, Iprivlavone and Black Cohosh (for menopausal symptoms). I won't know the results of this natural regimen until my next bone scan but anything has to be better than Fosamax! | F | 48 | 4 months 35 mg 1X W | 3/11/2010 | |
