Actonel is an FDA-approved medication that belongs to a class of medicines called bisphosphonates. The prescription medication is used to prevent and treat certain types of bone loss, particularly osteoporosis. It contains risedronate as its active ingredient and is available in the form of a tablet with different strengths to be taken on an empty stomach. You can buy Actonel online from Canada at the convenience of your home at affordable prices. Follow your doctor’s instructions and discuss any concerns or side effects with them.

Product Overview

Actonel, containing the active ingredient risedronate, is used to treat and prevent various forms of osteoporosis and Paget’s disease. Risedronate helps maintain bone density by inhibiting osteoclasts, which are responsible for breaking down bone, thereby slowing bone loss and increasing bone strength.

Actonel is available in tablet form with strengths of 5, 30, 35, 75, and 150 mg. It should be taken on an empty stomach with a full glass of water, and patients must sit upright for at least 30 minutes post-consumption. Suitable for postmenopausal women, men with osteoporosis, and those with glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis or Paget’s disease, Actonel works by allowing bone-building cells to function more effectively.

Common side effects include back, muscle, or joint pain, flu-like symptoms, heartburn, and stomach pain. Patients should follow dosage instructions carefully, avoid missing doses, and consult their doctor immediately in case of an overdose. Actonel should be stored at room temperature, away from moisture and direct sunlight. Always consult a healthcare provider for more guidance and before starting any new medication.

How Does Actonel Work?

Actonel is used to prevent and treat certain types of osteoporosis. It inhibits osteoclasts, cells responsible for breaking down and reabsorbing bone. By slowing down this bone loss, Actonel helps maintain bone density. It also strengthens bones and improves bone mass by allowing bone-building cells to work more effectively. In addition to strengthening and thickening bone tissue, Actonel may help prevent bone fractures.  

Important Safety Precautions

  • Before taking Actonel, let your doctor know if you are allergic to this medication or its ingredients.
  • Before taking this medication, share your complete medical history with your doctor, especially if you have problems with your esophagus, severe kidney problems, intestinal/stomach disorders or low calcium levels.
  • Do not take this medication if you cannot sit upright or stand straight for at least thirty minutes after taking it. 
  • While receiving treatment with this medication, you should be watchful for signs and symptoms of adverse reactions of allergy, such as difficulty breathing, hives, or facial or throat inflammation.
  • In rare cases, this medication may cause adverse jaw-related issues. Before taking this medication, you should visit your doctor to get your mouth checked. 
  • If you plan to undergo surgery, including a dental procedure, you should tell your doctor, dentist or surgeon about all your medications, including Actonel. Also, tell them about all prescription, non-prescription, and over-the-counter drugs and herbal supplements you may be taking. 
  • Do not take this medication if you are pregnant, suspect a pregnancy or if you are planning to become pregnant while you are using this medication.
  • Avoid smoking or try to quit smoking while you are using this medication, as it can decrease your bone mineral density and raise your risk for fractures. 
  • Consuming large amounts of alcohol while receiving treatment with this medication is not recommended as it can also cause bone loss.
