Osteoporosis	Quote \| Reply

My mum has recently turned 50 and had a bone density test done showing she had early signs of osteoporosis. She has suffered with lower back pain since last year. She was searching for something to relieve her pain when she came through a new medication called Boniva http://www.drugdelivery.ca/s33981-s-BONIVA.aspx . She did not get enough information on it. Can anyone provide me with some more information on Boniva? Is it effective to treat osteoporosis??

Hi, I havent heard of that medicine before so I don't know if this would help. Just tell your mom to take calcium supplements, drink lots of milk a day and eat greenleafy vegetables esp. broccoli, very good source of calcium.
