Endocrinology and Metabolism Clinics of North America, 2003 Osteoporosis is the result of bone loss due to an imbalance in bone turnover such that bone resorption exceeds bone formation. Bisphosphonates are potent inhibitors of osteoclast activity that reduce bone turnover and re-establish the balance between bone resorption and formation. In clinical studies, several bisphosphonates prevent bone loss, preserve

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2006 Abstract: Bisphosphonates belong to a class of compounds similar to pyrophosphate. In these compounds the oxygen atom of the pyrophosphate is replaced by a carbon atom resulting in a P‐C‐P bond. They exert a potent inhibitory effect on osteoclasts and are therefore potent antiresorptive agents. They reduce bone turnover, increase bone mineral density,
