My sister was on Fosamax for 7 years. A few months ago she was walking and her femur broke... After surgery and check up it was determined that her other femur had a fracture in it too so she needed another surgery. This is all from a drug that is supposed to make your bones stronger. They are just finding out about this side effect. Recently they told her that if you have thick bones, you should only take Fosamax for 3 years. Personally, I will NEVER take this drug.
