Actonel increases the amount of bone available by slowing down the replacement of old bone. But this has its own dangers, since the body is being prevented from replacing bone that may contain micro-fractures and that may not have healthy bone cells living in the bone.

While Actonel has been shown to slow or stop bone loss and to increase bone mineral density, it may be a choice of quantity over quality. While clinical trials showed Actonel side effects to be minimal or moderate, it is possible to have severe back, muscle, bone or joint pain, stomach pain or upset, or constipation. Contact your doctor if symptoms are severe.
