Actonel

Actonel is a drug consisting of Risedronate Sodium compound, and comes in the category of drugs used for the treatment of Osteoporosis. But, Actonel/Risedronate is most commonly used for the treatment of Postmenopausal Osteoporosis (PMO) in women and Glucocorticoid-Induced Osteoporosis (GIO) in men and women. Actonel/Risedronate is being manufactured by Procter & Gamble.

What are the most common problems for which the medicine is used?

Actonel/Risedronate is most commonly used for the treatment of Postmenopausal Osteoporosis in women. However, Actonel/Risedronate may be used for few other similar problems. Osteoporosis is a disease, which results in bones to become thinner that can easily break causing fractures and severe pains in the joints, and osteoporosis occurs due to decrease in the levels of calcium. Osteoporosis is similar to arthritis.

  • Postmenopausal Osteoporosis (PMO) in women:

  • PMO refers to the Osteoporosis that occurs in women when they have reached the Menopause stage. In healthy humans, bone formation and resorption are closely linked; old bone is resorbed and replaced by newly-formed bone. In postmenopausal osteoporosis, bone resorption exceeds bone formation, leading to bone loss and increased risk of bone fracture. After menopause, the risk of fractures of the spine and hip increases. Actonel/Risedronate is amongst the most successful drugs that is used for the treatment and prevention of Osteoporosis.

  • Glucocorticoid-Induced Osteoporosis (GIO) in men and women:

    Glucocorticoid- induced osteoporosis (GIO) occurs as a result of inhibited bone formation and increased bone resorption that yield net bone loss due to a variety of mechanisms. Actonel/Risedronate is also used to treat GIO.

  • Paget's disease:

    Paget’s disease of bone is a chronic skeletal disorder, which may result in enlarged or deformed bones in one or more regions of the skeleton. Though the causes are not known, medical therapies are available to manage the disease. Along with the above Actonel/Risedronate also works for Paget's disease.

How Actonel works?

As the bones becoming weaker basically characterize Osteoporosis, hence Actonel/Risedronate works by putting an end to the further weakening of bones. In addition to this, Actonel/Risedronate also helps in improving the weight of bones, thereby helping in the reverse of bone loss and increasing the weight of bones. Bone is living tissue that is constantly renewing itself. Old bone is taken away and replaced with new bone. With osteoporosis, the cells that take away bone outnumber the renewing cells, causing the bone to become weak and more likely to fracture. Actonel/Risedronate helps protect the bones from fracture by restoring the balance between the cells that take away and renew bone.

Actonel/Risedronate has an affinity for hydroxyapatite crystals in bone and acts as an antiresorptive agent. Actonel/Risedronate works by the function of the removal of bone tissue by resorption.
