Joint Pain, Nausea, Abdominal Cramps. Started Taking Actonel Dr. Side Effects Of Medicine?
I took my first tablet of Actonel DR 35mg(delayed-release) on Friday morning. On Saturday, I experienced severe joint pain, nausea, no appetite, abdominal cramps, and very fatigue.
On Sunday, I had some of the same symptoms, but not as severe. I,m not sure if these are side-effects from the medication, or just a coincidence. I,m a little apprehensive to take my second dosage next week.
Could give me some advise?

Hi, thanks for writing to HCM.
Yeah, the above symptoms in the given description could be related to side effects of risedronate (Actonel).
If you are very much worried and not able to tolerate the drug, consult your physician.
Hope this helps
