Efficacy and acceptability of risedronate 5 mg daily compared with 35 mg once weekly for the treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis

Abstract: The results support the hypothesis that risedronate 35 mg given once per week has the same therapeutic efficacy and safety as a daily 5 mg regimen. Taking the medicine once a week is likely to be easier and more satisfactory than the daily regimen. However, patients taking a once-a-week regimen may forget to take it due to the 7-day break without medicine.

“…Risedronate 5 mg administration daily has the similar outcome compared to 35 mg given weekly, and once-weekly risedronate would be more popular among patients. [ 25 , 26 ] Due to the limited of the included RCTs, we did not perform a subgroup analysis, more RCTs were required.…”

“…Upon further assessment of the remaining 2178 articles, we excluded 415 studies of non‐RCTs, 837 as unrelated to PO, 898 as irrelevant unrelated drugs for the treatment of PO, 1 study without data resources or incomplete documentation. Eventually, 27 RCTs were found eligible for this network meta‐analysis from 1998 to 2016 (Supplementary Figure 1). A total of 18 RCTs were conducted in Caucasians, and 9 RCT was conducted in Asians.…”

“…Biomarkers such as N-telopeptide (NTX), deoxypyridinoline (DPD), and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) are employed to gauge the rate of bone resorption, making them valuable in the diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring of pathological fractures associated with osteoporosis. [ 9 , 11 ] NTX, a fragment of N-telopeptides produced during bone resorption, is quantified in urine and offers insight into the pace of bone resorption. NTX measurements contribute to osteoporosis diagnosis, as increasing levels correlate with declining bone mass.…”

“…Additionally, CTX levels can be influenced by various factors, including corticosteroid use and kidney impairment, which can lead to elevated CTX levels. [9][10][11] CTX can also be juxtaposed with other markers for comprehensive monitoring of bone health. Additional peptide markers of bone resorption include N-telopeptide (NTX), deoxypyridinoline (DPD), and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP), all of which are integral to gauging bone resorption rates.…”
