Bioactivity Alendronic acid, a bisphosphonate, is a farnesyl diphosphate synthase (FDPS) inhibitor. Alendronic acid inhibits osteoclast-mediated bone resorption. Alendronic acid shows efficacy in postmenopausal osteoporosis, malignant hypercalcemia and Paget’s disease[1].
Invitro Bisphosphonates are widely used in the treatment of osteoporosis, and among the bisphosphonates, alendronic acid is the most frequently prescribed drug. Bisphosphonates have powerful inhibitory effects on bone remodeling, a process that is critically important for fracture healing[2].
