Fosamax or alendronate sodium is an United States Food and Drug Adminsitration approved osteoporosis drug which is part of a class of drugs known as bisphosphonates used in the treatment of osteoporosis (bone loss) in post-menopausal women; to increase bone mass in men with osteoporosis; and to treat Paget’s disease.

Bisphosphonates, once taken, remain in the bones indefinitely. It can upset the delicate balance between the cells that put calcium in bone and the cells that take calcium away. Long-term use of the osteoporosis drug Fosamax may weaken the bones in some people taking the drug. Patients who suffer this unusual side effect suffer broken legs after minor falls. They can have fractures along the length of the femur, the long bone in the thigh, after falls from standing position or lower. Prolonged use of the osteoporosis drug may overly suppress bone metabolism, impacting the ability of the bone to repair microdamage to the femur. If you are or one of your loved ones is suffering from weakened bones or long bone fractures due to Fosamax, you may be entitled to compensation for:

• Pain, suffering, and emotional distress
• Loss of wages and future loss of earning capacity
• Permanent disability
• Medical bills
