Risedronic acid, often used as its salt risedronate sodium, is a bisphosphonate used to treat and prevent osteoporosis or to treat Paget's disease of bone.[1] It is taken by mouth.[1]

Common side effects include constipation, nausea, headache, and rash.[1] Other side effects may include esophageal inflammation, esophageal perforation, osteonecrosis of the jaw, low calcium, and muscle pain.[1] Use is not recommended in those with significant kidney problems.[2] It works by inhibiting the cells which break down bone.[1]

Risedronic acid was patented in 1984 and approved for medical use in 1998.[3] It is available as a generic medication.[4] In the United States it costs about 30 USD per month as of 2021.[4] In the United Kingdom it costs the NHS about £10 per month.[2]
