The drug named Fosamax was designed to prevent the bone disease osteoporosis in postmenopausal women Osteoporosis is a disease that causes bones to lose density and strength as they age, and it affects over 40 million people in the United States alone. The majority of the people who suffer from osteoporosis are women over the age of 55, but the disease can strike virtually anyone at any age.

Fosamax was marketed to help rebuild and strengthen weakened bones and to prevent potentially life-threatening breaks and fractures, however, Fosamax causes a number of potentially serious side effects. Fosamax can cause a great deal of gastrointestinal distress including nausea, stomach pain, and constipation. In rare circumstances it can result in Osteonecrosis of the jaw, or what is commonly referred to “dead jaw.” Dead Jaw causes the bones in the jaw to swell, severely affecting the ability of the individual to eat, speak, and swallow.

If you have suffered the side effects of Fosamax you may be able to take legal action against those responsible. Let a dedicated and experienced Fosamax lawyer help you get the compensation you deserve. Contact one in your area today.
