Description
Usage
Vegabon 70 mg is used to prevent bone loss and help rebuild bone in postmenopausal women. It is an effective treatment for osteoporosis, which is the thinning and weakening of bones. Osteoporosis is common in women after menopause. During menopause, the ovaries stop producing estrogen, a female hormone that helps maintain a healthy skeleton. As a result, bone loss occurs, and bones weaken. Vegabon 70 mg works by preventing bone loss and helping to rebuild lost bone, reducing the likelihood of fractures in the hip and spine.
How it Works
Vegabon 70 mg contains Alendronate Sodium, which belongs to a class of drugs called bisphosphonates. Bisphosphonates work by slowing down the rate at which bone is broken down in the body, which allows the bone to rebuild itself. Vegabon 70 mg helps in preventing bone loss and rebuilds lost bone. This medication is highly effective in reducing the likelihood of fractures in the hip and spine.
