Abstract

Both alendronate and risedronate have mucosal irritative and healing impairing effects in the stomach, yet the effect of risedronate was much less pronounced compared to alendronate. It is assumed that risedronate is safer than alendronate as the antiresorptive agent in patients with diseases related to bone remodeling.
