Fosamax Lawsuit Overview

Fosamax Medication Injury: Femur Fracture

Women suffering from osteopenia, osteoporosis, bone breaks and similar conditions may have taken bisphosphonate medications with names such as Fosamax, alendronate (generic Fosamax), Boniva, Acontel and Forteo. If you or a loved one has suffered bone damage as a result of taking an aforementioned medication, contact Rheingold, Valet, Rheingold, Shkolnik & McCartney immediately. We provide representation to residents of New York City and communities throughout New York state.

New medical research suggests that use of Fosamax may increase the risk of femur fractures. In March, 2010, the FDA issued an FDA Drug Safety Communication: Ongoing Safety Review of Oral Bisphosphonates and Atypical Subtrochanteric Femur Fractures. This was in part a response to a study published in the May/June 2008 issue of the Journal of Orthopedic Trauma. Researchers performed reviews of femur fractures which resulted in emergency room treatment between January 2002 and March 2007. Researchers identified a fracture pattern that was 98 percent specific to users of Fosamax.
