Buy Actonel, Risedronate

Risedronate is used for the treatment and prevention of osteoporosis for women who are past menopause. It is also used to treat and prevent osteoporosis for men and women taking high doses of corticosteroids, and to treat a condition called Paget's disease.

Risedronate increases the thickness of bone (bone mineral density) by slowing down the cells that usually break down bone (osteoclasts). This allows the cells that build bone (osteoblasts) to work more efficiently. By making bones stronger, risedronate can help to reduce the incidence of broken bones.
