Re: osteoporosis treatment From: Barbara (anonymous@obgyn.net) Thu, 29 Oct 1998 00:07:55 -0600 (CST) Messages sorted by: [ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ] Next message: Marcia: "Re: Patients with previous elective abortion" Previous message: Tracy: "Cysts on my ovary" In reply to: Janis: "osteoporosis treatment" Hi Janis, I just had a yearly physical with one of our OBGYN.net docs here in Austin, TX and he and I talked about this in case my bone density test came back reccomending I take Fosamax. I am already taking EVISTA. As a post breast cancer patient this is the best med on the maaaarket at this time for us gals. Well his advise (if I needed to take Fosamax) was to take the Fosamax in the am and then take the EVISTA mid-day. The reasoning for this is because Fosamax although a great drug for bones can be rough on your stomach and you do need to Not eat or lie down for 1/2 hout to 1 hour After taking it. So yes they are compatible but not great taken together. BTW my test came back Great and I don't need it!
