I have developed blood clots in my leg and doctors have not found the cause. I have been taking the
monthly Boniva for 6 months. Could there be a connection?
Thanks for your question! What a tough situation, I wish you the best. From the literature I've read, I haven't seen any reports of blood clots associated with bisphosphonates. (A completely different osteoporosis medication, however -- Evista -- is not recommended for those at risk of blood clots, but that drug is chemically unrelated to Boniva.) Nevertheless, it is still a good idea to confirm that your doctor is aware of all the medications you are taking (even those prescribed by other physicians) as you try to figure out the best course of action. Good luck!
