Resolved Question: saw a commercial and i can't remember the name of the supplement?
(Mon, 26 Oct 2009 15:51:16 GMT)
I saw a commercial with a lady the other day talking about how she gained back natural energy she had when she was younger, it had a very "sally field boniva" feel to it anyway she ice skated around and talked about how this formula helped work with metabolism to give you a natural energy to stay away from energy drinks. I think it started with a Q and is an over the counter sold in stores product... Has anyone else this commercial or heard of this new "drug/supplement'? i would like to invest

Resolved Question: Is Boniva an example of the "Death Panels" Republicans keep talking about?
(Sat, 24 Oct 2009 05:31:27 GMT)
"...Boniva’s convenient, sure. But as the Adwatch video explains, that convenience comes at a price—it can set you back about 10 times the cost of the similar drug alendronate (the generic version of Fosamax). No wonder Boniva’s backers, Roche and GlaxoSmithKline can afford to invest in a big-name celebrity to pitch it. Interestingly, studies don’t show that Boniva is any more effective than other bisphosphonates. So unless you absolutely can’t tolerate a weekly dosing schedule, it makes sense

Voting Question: Cause of the symptom "can't or stand for 1 hour?"?
(Sun, 23 Aug 2009 02:14:49 GMT)
I was watching a commercial for Boniva and they said don't take it if you can't sit or stand for 1 hour? I assume this is because the symptom is a sign of a higher level condition causing this. What medical condition would cause this? What would happen to a person afflicted with it if they did sit or stand for say 3 hours? @Jandy's response, this question really is not related to Boniva or what it treats at all. A commercial for Boniva just happened to be the source the curiosity for my ro

I have a neice who has Fibromyalgia and Lupus and has been living with it for quite sometime. The medications she takes is Medrol, Imuran, Plaquenil, Boniva and Tylenol #4 (For Pain). She fights with depression and often states that she is in pain ALL THE TIME. While, I do not doubt what she says because she has the physical symptoms. Twisted fingers (such as in Rheumatoid Arthritis), constant swelling, etc. However, here lately, her specialist has prescribed her "muscle relaxers" such as

I've been power walking everyday for 45 minutes to an hour for a couple of months and I also do light weights 3 hours a week but my husband says it can be dangerous. He has known people who exercised everyday and at some point they stopped because they went on vacation and got heart attacks because their bodies were not getting the exercise they had become used to. How much is too much? I need the exercise because my bones show low density (osteopenia) and I can't tolerate medications like Ac

Resolved Question: Depletes your Calcium? MMA / Broken Bone?
(Sun, 26 Apr 2009 23:59:19 GMT)
I've noticed a few people in MMA with broken bones, eg. Shamrock's ForeArm and a few others with Broken Tibias and it got me thinking a bit. I realize that certain drugs like Ibuprofen/ Aspirin deplete your body of Folic Acid/C/Potassium, however is there a drug that accidentally/haphazardly deplete your bone of Calcium? For example, I believe Boniva (sp?) strengthens woman's bones for osteoporosis, however did some drug company accidentally make a pill that did the opposite affect of Boni

Resolved Question: Other Bone Fracture Medcines? My mother can't take Fosamax and her doctor will not prescribe Boniva. Why?
(Sun, 28 Sep 2008 01:33:58 GMT)
The only reason he has given her for not prescribing Boniva is that Boniva is a newer drug and there has not been adequate testing. Currently she is taking nothing. I am very concerned because my mother is 84 and every time she falls she breaks something. She has broken a toe, a rib, a wrist, and a shoulder.

All I'm asking is if anyone here buys generic Boniva. I know that pharmacists say that it's not available yet, but there are some Canadian prarmacies that are selling what they claim is generic Boniva. This makes me wonder if perhaps it (GENERIC Boniva) is simply not available for purchase in United States, but available for purchase in Canada and other countries. So, does anyone here buy generic Boniva? Penny, you're wrong. I finally found all answers I needed. Ibandronate Sodium is t

On day prior to test, had almonds in morning and at lunch - my ultimate no-no, a macadamia cookie, then a raw ph vegetable juice, plus water. Could ANY OF THIS have triggered it?

Does anyone know if reclast has side effects, and if so, what and how long? Also do you know how much it costs? There is a once a year shot as well but I need to know the name of that too. People say 'ask your doctor' but some of these are so new, that some of the doctors dont know yet. Please help--she has the bones of an 80 year old woman.
