Fosamax Important Information About FOSAMAX-- You should not use
FOSAMAX if you have certain disorders of the esophagus (the tube connecting the
mouth with the stomach), are unable to stand or sit upright for 30 minutes, have
severe kidney disease, low blood calcium, or are allergic to FOSAMAX. Before use,
talk to your doctor if you have stomach or digestive problems. Stop taking FOSAMAX
and tell your doctor if you develop new or worsening heartburn, difficult or painful
swallowing, or chest pain because these may be signs of serious upper digestive
problems which can include irritation, inflammation, or ulceration of the esophagus.
