Take Adomega-Ace Tablet as prescribed. Sometimes, Adomega-Ace Tablet may cause side effects such as muscle or joint pain, nausea, indigestion, gas and headache.

Adomega-Ace Tablet is used to treat osteoporosis in postmenopausal women. It contains Alendronic acid (Alendronate) and Cholecalciferol (Vitamin D3). Adomega-Ace Tablet works by preventing bone destruction and resorption, thereby retaining the normal density of bones. It slows down the activity of bone-destroying cells (osteoclasts), which tend to be overdriven in case of bone diseases such as osteoporosis. Cholecalciferol is the active form of Vitamin D and is essential in maintaining and promoting bone integrity and health. Hence, Adomega-Ace Tablet is useful in strengthening and restoring the integrity and health of weak bones.

Osteoporosis: Osteoporosis is a state in which the bones become weak and brittle, making them more prone to falls and fractures. It is often brought about by disease and age (menopausal osteoporosis). In osteoporosis, the activity of bone-destroying cells surpasses the activity of bone-forming cells. Most people do not suffer from any symptoms until there’s a fracture and bones literally start to break.
