[Bisphosphonates and combined treatments osteoporosis]
Abstract
Bisphosphonates are inhibitors of bone resorption, which reduce vertebral and non-vertebral fracture risk. Their efficacity has been shown in controlled trials up to 5 years, and their safety up to ten years. There is no proven benefit of combining two bone resorption inhibitors.
