Boniva [Ibandronate] side effects

Important things you should know about ibandronate

Ibandronate may cause serious stomach and esophagus (the tube that connects your mouth and stomach) problems including heartburn, ulcer, or trouble swallowing. Take ibandronate exactly as prescribed in order to lower the chance of serious side effects.

Take ibandronate first thing in the morning at least 1 hour (60 minutes) before you eat or drink anything other than plain water, or take any other medicine.


Above is off their website...however, Boneva is a drug for osteoporosis....wondering why they are using it to lower estrogen level ?
