Description
BONIVA is an oral prescription medicine used to treat or prevent osteoporosis in women after menopause. It works by increasing bone mineral density (BMD) and reduces the incidence of vertebral fractures. BONIVA slows bone loss while increasing bone mass, which may prevent bone fractures.
|
Directions
To maximize absorption and benefit, BONIVA should be taken at least 60 minutes before the first food or drink (other than water) of the day or before taking any oral medication or supplementation, including calcium, antacids, or vitamins. BONIVA tablets should be swallowed whole with a full glass of plain water (6 to 8 oz) while the patient is standing or sitting in an upright position. Patients should not lie down for 60 minutes after taking the medication. Patients should not eat, drink anything except water, or take other medications for at least 60 minutes after taking BONIVA.
