Atelvia DR is a prescription medication used for the treatment of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women. Atelvia DR contains risedronate sodium as active ingredient. Risedronate is in a class of medications called bisphosphonates. It works by preventing the breakdown of bone and increasing bone density, which helps to reduce the risk of fractures.
Atelvia DR is a delayed-release tablet that is designed to lower the chance of esophagus problems that can occur with other forms of the medication. It can be used to prevent and treat osteoporosis (a condition in which the bones become thin and weak and break easily) in women who have undergone menopause.
Risedronate is available in delayed-release tablets that should be orally taken once a week in the morning after breakfast. To use Atelvia DR, which contains risedronate sodium in a delayed-release form, take one 35 mg tablet orally once a week, after a meal/following breakfast, swallowed whole without being chewed or crushed.
Remain in an upright position for at least 30 minutes after taking the medication to prevent stomach and esophagus problems. Follow the instructions on the prescription label carefully and ask your doctor or pharmacist for clarification.
Carefully follow the instructions on your prescription label and seek clarification from your doctor or pharmacist on any unclear parts. Take risedronate as directed without exceeding the prescribed dose or taking it for more extended periods than recommended by your healthcare provider.
