Abstract

Bisphosphonates are the most common drugs used for the treatment of osteoporosis. The article examines the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, clinical efficacy, and safety of alendronates from the perspective of evidence-based medicine. The feasibility of the application of alendronate 70 mg once a week, which significantly improves patients' adherence to treatment, is demonstrated.
