Fosamax Plus D is a medication used to treat certain types of bone loss, specifically osteoporosis, and to increase bone mass. Osteoporosis leads to a reduction in bone density, making bones thinner and more susceptible to fractures.
This product is a combination of two medicines: alendronate and cholecalciferol (vitamin D3).
Alendronate operates by slowing down bone loss, thereby aiding in the maintenance of strong bones and reducing the risk of fractures. It belongs to a class of medications known as bisphosphonates.
On the other hand, vitamin D3 plays a vital role in facilitating the absorption of calcium by the body and is necessary for the formation of healthy bones.

This is not an exhaustive list, and other side effects may occur. If you experience any unusual or severe side effects while taking Fosamax plus d, contact your healthcare provider for medical advice.
Tell your healthcare provider about any allergies you have to alendronate, vitamin D products, or any other ingredients in the medication.
Inform your healthcare provider about your medical history, especially concerning:
Some people taking Fosamax Plus D may experience serious jawbone problems. Your healthcare provider will need to examine your mouth before starting this medication.
Inform your healthcare provider that you are taking Fosamax Plus D before any dental procedures. Regular healthcare provider checkups and proper oral hygiene are crucial to minimize the risk of jawbone problems. Report any jaw pain to your healthcare provider immediately.
Before any surgery (especially dental), tell your healthcare provider and dentist about Fosamax Plus D and all other medications you take. They may advise you to stop taking it before surgery and provide instructions on stopping or restarting the medication.
Fosamax Plus D is not recommended for children due to potential severe side effects.
Discuss the risks and benefits with your healthcare provider. Alendronate stays in the body for a long time, and pregnancy is not recommended while using this medication.
Vitamin D3 passes into breast milk, but it's unknown if alendronate does. Consult your healthcare provider before breastfeeding.
