Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

Zoledronic Acid

Zoledronic acid is a new, highly potent, heterocyclic nitrogen-containing third generation bisphosphonate that has demonstrated 40- to 850- fold greater potency than pamidronate in preclinical models of bone resorption. The mechanism of action of nitrogen-containing bisphosphonates such as pamidronate and zoledronic acid appears to involve inhibition of the mevalonate pathway
