Bonefos Ampoules (also known by the generic name Clodronate Disodium) is a medication that is used prevent bone breakdown in certain diseases such as cancer and other diseases where bone breakdown is abnormal. It belongs to a group of medicines called biphosphonates.
Our bones are constantly being remodeled and this process is done by two types of cells in our bodies: osteoclasts and osteoblasts. Osteoclasts break down areas of bone and resorb them, and osteoblasts build up bone and replace bone where the osteoclasts have broken it down and resorbed it. This remodeling process is normal in healthy humans and is the way the body ensures that we have the healthiest and strongest skeleton at all times.
Certain diseases, such as cancer, can cause more bone to be resorbed than normal, resulting in high levels of calcium in the blood and this can cause further, life-threatening problems for the patient. Biphosphonates such as Bonefos Ampoules prevent the osteoclasts from resorbing too much bone which, in turn, keeps blood calcium levels down and prevents the bones from being weak and prone to fracture.
