Ibandronate Sodium (Form β) API

Mechanism of Action

The action of ibandronate on bone is based on its affinity for hydroxyapatite, which is part of the mineral matrix of bone. Ibandronate inhibits osteoclast activity and reduces bone resorption and turnover. In postmenopausal women, it reduces the elevated rate of bone turnover, leading to, on average, a net gain in bone mass.

Indication

BONIVA Injection is a bisphosphonate indicated for the treatment of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women.

Limitations of Use:

• Optimal duration of use has not been determined. For patients at low-risk for fracture, consider drug discontinuation after 3 to 5 years of use
