Recently, Fosamax, the popular drug used to treat osteoporosis, has been linked to severe injuries including Osteonecrosis of the Jaw (also known as Fossy Jaw, Dead Jaw and Phossy Jaw), low-energy femur fractures and severe and painful injuries affecting bones, joints and muscles. Last year the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) warned that Fosamax, and other bisphosphonates including Actonel, Aredia and Zometa, had been linked to these severe side effects and urged the public to discontinue use of the drug if they have experienced any of these injuries.
