RECLAST SUMMARY
Reclast contains zoledronic acid, a bisphosphonic acid which is an inhibitor of osteoclastic bone resorption.
Reclast (zoledronic acid) is indicated for the following:
Postmenopausal Osteoporosis
Reclast is indicated for treatment of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women. In postmenopausal women with osteoporosis, Reclast reduces the incidence of fractures (hip, vertebral and non-vertebral osteoporosis-related fractures) [ see Clinical Studies (14 .1)].
Paget's Disease of Bone
Reclast is indicated for treatment of Paget's disease of bone in men and women. Treatment is indicated in patients with Paget’s disease of bone with elevations in serum alkaline phosphatase of two times or higher than the upper limit of the age-specific normal reference range, or those who are symptomatic, or those at risk for complications from their disease [ see Clinical Studies (14 . 2 ) ].
