Hello,

As per my clinical experience, the Reclast contains Zolendronic acid as its content and hence it is used in variety of clinical conditions including Page disease of bone, osteoporosis of the post menopausal women. However, as there are many side effects of Zolendronic acid such as:
- Nausea, vomiting
- Headache
- Dizziness
- Fever
- Chills
- Muscle and joint ache
- Pain at injection site

Kindly discuss pros and cons of the therapy before initiating it.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
