Alendronate sodium (70mg) for osteoporosis
Because I take prednisone for RA, I also have to take Fosamax to prevent osteoporosis. Because I used it for too long, I spontaneously broke a bone in my thigh. The orthopaedist wanted to let it heal naturally, using crutches for ages. After one year it's still not completely better and so it turns out I need to have a screw inserted into it.

Alendronate sodium (70mg) for osteoporosis
The number of side effects combined with my anxiety about the risk of dying from a bone or cartilage problem was all the motivation I needed to start taking this medicine quickly. I'm not convinced of its effectiveness because although there certainly is an improvement in my bones, they are still porous according to the scan and so still eminently breakable.
