I just started taking Fosamax two weeks ago so I cant really rate the effectiveness yet. After taking it I experence indigestion and some stomach upset. But after reading some of the other reviews, I think I'm pretty lucky. I think in my case if the drug was coated it may be a little better with less discomfort.

I,m 48 yrs old, took 3 doses of this drug. Every joint in my body seemed to ache, including muscle pain. Felt like I had the flu. It's been 2 weeks since I quit taking it and my symptons are not getting any better. My mother (72 yrs), and my sister (53 yrs) also take this drug; however, they do not have any negative side effects.

I was recently diagnosed with a fracture of my femur. My dr. says this is a little advertised side effect of taking fosamax for over 5 years!! PLEASE be aware that in some women it can have this effect only in the femur. It is NOT in any Merck literature but in Europe drs. require their patients to stop it after 5 years!! Be advised.

After using bisphosphonates for 12 yrs. two months ago I have 2 teeth extracted & the pathology report said those areas had osteonecrosis (bone death) plus bacteria. It does not show up in dental x-rays so be sure you have a biological type dentist. Do not take Fosamax is my recommendation.
