🧬 What is Risofos 35 mg?
Risofos 35 mg is a generic version of Risedronate, classified as a bisphosphonate. It is prescribed to treat and prevent osteoporosis in postmenopausal women and men, manage Paget’s disease of bone, and counteract corticosteroid-induced bone loss. Risedronate works by slowing down bone resorption, allowing bones to remain stronger and less prone to fractures.
Its once-weekly dosage improves compliance while maintaining long-term skeletal benefits. This medication is a generic alternative to Actonel.
