Ostonat Kit is best taken in an empty stomach. You should take it regularly at a fixed time each day. Taking it at the same time every day will help you remember to take it. It may take several days to get the full benefit of this drug. Do not stop taking the medicine until your doctor tells you it is alright to stop.

The most common side effects of this medicine include headache, back pain, musculoskeletal (bone, muscle or joint) pain, indigestion, heartburn, and diarrhea. These are generally mild and usually resolve on their own. If they do not go away or get worse, you should let your doctor know. Your doctor may be able to suggest ways of preventing or reducing the side effects.
Before using this medicine, let your doctor know if you have any medical conditions or disorders. To make sure the medicine is safe for you, let your doctor also know all the other medicines you are taking. You may need frequent medical tests to check your kidney function and mineral levels while on treatment with this medicine.

Uses of Ostonat Tablet
Benefits of Ostonat Tablet
In Treatment of Post menopausal osteoporosis
Osteoporosis is thinning and weakening of the bones, thus increasing the risk of fractures. This is common in women after the menopause and is called post menopausal osteoporosis. Ostonat Kit may reverse bone loss by stopping more loss of bone and increasing bone mass. This will reduce the risk of fractures in osteoporosis. Ostonat Kit also helps to keep bones strong and healthy. Since osteoporosis doesn’t usually have any symptoms such as pain (until a fracture occurs) you might not ‘feel’ any immediate benefit from your treatment with Ostonat Kit. Keep taking it untill your doctor asks you to stop.

Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them

How Ostonat Tablet works
Ostonat Kit is a combination of two medicines: Alendronic Acid, Calcium and Vitamin D3 which treat osteoporosis. Alendronic Acid is a bisphosphonate.
