Fosamax® linked to Osteonecrosis of the Jaw and Bone Fracture

Fosamax® Lawsuits

Studies show a link between osteonecrosis (bone decay) and Fosamax®. Lawsuits have been filed against the manufacturer of Fosamax® by persons suffering from bone decay and fractures as a result of taking this drug, which paradoxically is prescribed to treat bone loss.

Symptoms of Osteonecrosis of the Jaw (ONJ) include

  • Jaw/gum numbness, pain or swelling
  • Loose teeth
  • Exposed bone
  • Dramatic gum loss

Symptoms of Avascular Necrosis (AVN) include

  • Hip/Knee/Shoulder pain
  • Bone damage
  • Loss of joint function

If you or a loved one took Fosamax® and was diagnosed with osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ), avascular necrosis (AVN) and/or suffered a bone fracture, you may be entitled to compensation.
