Osteoporosis Drug Information
Here are some articles I have written or reported on since starting this business ten years ago, about Osteoporosis and the drugs that are offered to alleviate it, most of which make it worse and are very risky to take.
You won’t find this information on AMA based sites or the Osteoporosis organizations sites. The doctors who do conventional medicine are still pushing the drugs regardless of all the disasters that they have caused, and the foundations are taking drug companies money to stay in business. Our health in this country has been sold out to BigPharma and we have to do our own research. The government is not on our side. I said this ten years ago and now it has been proven true in spades.
There are a large number of fine doctors doing great research and coming up with alternate solutions that are non-harmful. They look on the body as a whole system pulling together, not as separate bits that they can poison at will. The best place to find alternative information on any problem is mercola.com. He is constantly interviewing doctors and researchers on the leading edge of discoveries that are ignored by the normal press.
Why do doctors prescribe drugs that are not good for us?

Now the patent on the bisphosphonate drugs has run out the drug companies are introducing even more toxic drugs at higher cost and more profit – daily injections, drug poisons that last a year in your body (or probably much longer, nobody knows yet). Read about the new drugs here.
You can also go to a site that has ratings from real people who have taken the drugs AskaPatient.com. They can rate the drugs from 1 to 5 – 5 being the most satisfied. Fosomax alone has 1074 ratings averaging 1.4 satisfaction. Your doctor may say that these are the complainers of the world (mine did), but if you read some of them you will recognize the desperation these people feel. When you add the awareness that to seek out this site and give their stories, the people had to be very computer proficient and eager to help others avoid their mistaken trust in the drug offered by their doctors. How many women did not speak up? And how many doctors ignored their reactions?
Here is a summary of the adverse affects reported to the FDA about Fosamax.
There are 20 adverse affects reported, not including death. But if you read some of the pages, someone who wrote in said that a family member actually died shortly after taking it right in the hospital. Many doctors are in denial of the effects and refuse to acknowledge that it was the bone drug that caused the problem. So many women have told me that their doctors deny their reality about the effects of the drug and say it must be something else. They don’t want to take responsibility for prescribing something dangerous.
I just read this from a recent entry:
Side effects from Fosamax taken on 4/25/15 Paralyzed thighs, hand pain, chest pains, jaw bone pain, hip pain, cannot walk at times, back pains, rash, constipation, knee pain, neck pain.
Comment: I do not think I will ever be back to normal. I have been bedridden since 4/25/2015. I asked my doctor if I will be whole again, she told me to drink lots of water. Everyday it’s another hurt. I do not know why it is still on the market. I pray that these side effects leave me because I can’t live like this.
Doesn’t that break your heart? And the doctor said to drink more water. I think doctors should take the drugs they are passing out first to see how they react. That would stop most of the drug-pushing in a very short time.
