The generic name for Fosamax is alendronate sodium.
Unless specifically required by the manufacturer to be refrigerated (which in my over 9 years' experience in 6 different pharmacies I've never seen), atropine vials can be stored at room temperature along with the other injectable drugs of the pharmacy.
Fosamax has been directly linked to osteoporosis in the jaw, and that can definitely cause jaw pain. I would not recommend using this product for any reason, and try to find an alternative.
Fosamax is the trade name given by Merck. It is now found as a generic. Barr and Teva sell this generic form.
The generic for Fosamax is already available. The FDA gave their approval for a generic version of the medication in 2008.
Fosamax is a prescription drug used to treat older people suffering from osteoporosis. The drug was designed to increase bone mass which subsequently reduces the risk of bone fractures. One reported side effect with Fosamax is jaw osteonecrosis. A few years ago, studies also indicated drugs like Fosamax for a long time may weaken bones.
Fosamax is a prescription grade pain killer. Anyone that tries to quit this drug cold turkey risks going into withdrawal.
I do not know if it is as effective as Fosamax but I can say that the side effects from taking Alendronate Sodium 70 mg tabs are not good. This includes constant drooling and difficulty swallowing., Empire Blue Cross Blue Shield now excludes brand name Fosamax but this is a bad decision.
Fosamax which can cause Osteonecrosis (the bone dies)
