About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Gatofos 35 Tablet: Alendronic Acid for Osteoporosis Treatment
Gatofos 35 Tablet is a once-weekly oral medication containing Alendronic Acid (35mg) specifically formulated to treat osteoporosis in postmenopausal women and men with increased risk of fractures.
It belongs to a class of drugs known as bisphosphonates, which inhibit bone resorption by attaching to bone mineral surfaces and preventing osteoclasts from breaking down bone tissue. Alendronic acid works by:
* Reducing bone breakdown: It helps slow the release of calcium into the bloodstream, thereby reducing bone loss and weakening bone density.
* Improving bone strength: By minimizing bone degradation, Gatofos helps to build and strengthen bones over time.
Gatofos 35 Tablet is taken orally once weekly. It's crucial to take it consistently with food for optimal absorption and effectiveness. Consult a healthcare professional regarding dosage adjustments based on individual needs.
Always consult your doctor or pharmacist before starting any new medication, including Gatofos 35 Tablet. This information provides general guidance; individual responses may vary.
