About this product

Overview

Bonviva 150mg Tablet contains the active ingredient Ibandronic Acid. It belongs to a class of medications called bisphosphonates and is primarily prescribed for the treatment and prevention of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women.

Uses

Bonviva 150mg Tablet is used to:

  • Treat osteoporosis, a condition characterized by weakened bones and increased risk of fractures, particularly in postmenopausal women.
  • Prevent osteoporotic fractures, including vertebral fractures and hip fractures, in postmenopausal women at risk of developing osteoporosis or experiencing bone loss.

How It Works

Ibandronic Acid, the active ingredient in Bonviva 150mg Tablet, works by inhibiting the activity of osteoclasts, cells responsible for breaking down bone tissue. By reducing bone resorption, ibandronic acid helps maintain or increase bone density, leading to stronger bones and reduced fracture risk.

Side Effects

Common side effects of Bonviva 150mg Tablet may include:

  • Nausea
  • Diarrhea
  • Headache
  • Musculoskeletal pain
  • Flu-like symptoms (e.g., fever, fatigue, body aches)

Less common but more severe side effects may include:

  • Osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ)
  • Atypical femoral fractures
  • Esophageal irritation or ulceration
  • Hypocalcemia (low blood calcium levels)

If you experience any severe or persistent side effects, inform your healthcare provider promptly.

Precautions

Before taking Bonviva 150mg Tablet, inform your doctor if you have any kidney problems, dental problems, or gastrointestinal disorders.
