Is there a medicine similar to Boniva, which is for Osteoporosis, that is available in the market in China?

If there are none, can anyone make a suggestion as to affective osteoporosis medicine that might be found in Asia? This could be life-saving! Pease, any suggestions will be taken into consideration. Thank you.


Answers:

The prescription medications most similar to Boniva in the U.S. are Fosamax (alendronate) and Actonel (risendronate) these should be easer to find than Boniva, and should be available in China (if Boniva is). Beware of fakes in China, however... there is a big market for conterfeit meds and China and India are common countries of origin. If you have no luck finding them, there are other options- such as Fortical (calcitonin nasal spray) and estrogens. Keep in mind the brand names are probably different in other countries, so go by the generic name (in parenthesis).
