Actonel 35 MG Tablet 4contains risedronate (35 mg), which works on the body as follows:

• Osteoclast Inhibition: Risedronate suppresses the activity of osteoclasts, cells responsible for breaking down and resorbing bone tissue, thus slowing bone loss.

• Bone Mineral Density Enhancement: By reducing bone resorption, risedronate helps increase bone mineral density, making bones stronger and less susceptible to fractures.

• Bone Metabolism Regulation: This medicine helps restore the balance between bone formation and breakdown, leading to healthier bone structure.

• Fracture Risk Reduction: Through its action on bone tissue, risedronate significantly reduces the risk of vertebral and non-vertebral fractures in patients with osteoporosis.

• Store the tablet at temperatures not exceeding 30°C.

• Protect from light and moisture exposure.

• Keep the medicine in its original packaging until use.

• Ensure adequate calcium intake through dairy products, leafy greens, and fortified foods while taking Actonel 35 MG Tablet 4. Proper calcium levels are essential for bone health and osteoporosis management.
