BIFOSA 35 MG Tablet 4 contains alendronic acid (35 mg), which works on the body as follows:

• Inhibits osteoclast activity: Alendronic acid attaches to the surface of bones and interferes with the action of bone-removing cells called osteoclasts, which normally break down bone tissue.

• Reduces bone resorption: By slowing down the process of bone breakdown (resorption), this medicine helps maintain bone density and prevents excessive bone loss.

• Enhances osteoblast effectiveness: With reduced osteoclast activity, the bone-building cells called osteoblasts can work more effectively, leading to increased bone mass over time.

• Increases bone mineral density: Through its combined effects on bone cells, alendronic acid helps strengthen bones and makes them less prone to fractures.
