Overview

Fosamax Plus 70mg/5600IU Tablet (New) is a prescription-only medicine (POM) that contains Alendronate sodium 70mg and Cholecalciferol (Vitamin D3) 5600IU. It is supplied as a tablet and is dispensed in Malaysia only against a valid prescription issued by a registered doctor.

Under Malaysian rules for prescription medicines, this page carries product, safety and handling information only. Your doctor or pharmacist will explain whether this medicine is suitable for you, the dose you should take, and how long you should take it.

On DoctorOnCall, Fosamax Plus 70mg/5600IU Tablet (New) is reviewed by a licensed doctor through an online consultation and dispensed by a registered pharmacist before delivery. Always follow the instructions on your prescription label and the package insert supplied with the product, and do not share this medicine with anyone else.

Directions for Use

Take Fosamax Plus 70mg/5600IU Tablet (New) first thing in the morning, at least 30 minutes before the first food, drink (other than plain water), or other medicine of the day, swallowed whole with a full glass of plain water only – not mineral water, coffee, tea, juice, or milk. After swallowing the tablet, remain fully upright (sitting or standing) for at least 30 minutes and until after you have eaten your first food of the day. Do not lie down during this time, as this reduces the risk of the tablet irritating or damaging the oesophagus (food pipe).

Dosage

The usual dose of Fosamax Plus 70mg/5600IU Tablet (New) is one tablet once weekly, on the same day each week, exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Do not take an extra tablet to make up for a missed dose – if you miss your usual day, take one tablet the morning after you remember, then return to your original weekly schedule.

Storage Instructions

Store below 30°C in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children.

Drug / Food Interactions

  • Calcium supplements, antacids, and other oral medicines can significantly reduce alendronate absorption if taken too close together – space them at least 30 minutes apart
  • NSAIDs (e.g. ibuprofen, aspirin) may increase the risk of stomach or oesophageal irritation when combined with alendronate
  • Food and beverages other than plain water (including mineral water, coffee, juice, and milk) markedly reduce alendronate absorption if taken with or soon after the dose
  • Other bisphosphonates should not be used at the same time as this product
