Pharmacokinetics of alendronate in a combined Alendronate/Vitamin D3 tablet in healthy volunteers using plasma and urine data [PDF]
Alendronate is indicated for treatment of a variety of bone metabolism disorders. In spite of quite low plasma concentrationsfollowing oral administration, pharmacokinetic study of alendronate based on plasma concentrations had normally been reported for

Effects of 24 months of treatment with romosozumab followed by 12 months of denosumab or placebo in postmenopausal women with low bone mineral density : a randomized, double-blind, phase 2, parallel group study [PDF]
Over 12 months, romosozumab increased bone formation and decreased bone resorption, resulting in increased bone mineral density (BMD) in postmenopausal women with low BMD (NCT00896532).

Alendronate and other bisphosphonates are effective in the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis by inhibiting bone resorption. In normal circumstances a small initial fall in serum calcium has no clinical consequences because it is corrected by an increase in parathyroid hormone (PTH) secretion1.
