INTRODUCTION

IDROFOS 150MG TABLET contains Ibandronic acid , which belongs to the group of medicines called Bisphosphonates. It is used to reverse bone loss and increase bone mass in women, lower the chances of bone fracture, and manage postmenopausal osteoporosis.

Osteoporosis is the thinning and weakening of the bones, which is common in women after menopause. Symptoms include back pain, loss of height over time, stooped posture and easy bone fractures.

Along with this treatment, your doctor might advise you to maintain a healthy lifestyle, like eating a balanced diet rich in calcium and vitamin D, walking or any other weight-bearing exercise, maintaining good oral hygiene, and avoiding smoking and alcohol consumption. Prior to the treatment, your doctor might want you to take X-rays to understand your existing condition.
