Alendronate is a bisphosphonate that inhibits Alendronate is a bisphosphonate that inhibits osteoclast-mediated bone resorption and is FDA-osteoclast-mediated bone resorption and is FDA-approved for the treatment of osteoporosis in men approved for the treatment of osteoporosis in men and women. and women.
Small open-label studies of alendronate in Small open-label studies of alendronate in combination with calcium and vitamin D in HIV+ combination with calcium and vitamin D in HIV+ individuals suggested the drug increases lumbar individuals suggested the drug increases lumbar spine BMD and is well tolerated (Guaraldi 2004; spine BMD and is well tolerated (Guaraldi 2004; Mondy 2005; Negredo 2005).Mondy 2005; Negredo 2005).
