(EMAILWIRE.COM, July 09, 2011 ) New York, NY -- A Fosamax lawsuit may be an option for users of the osteoporosis drug who suffered a femur or thigh bone fracture while taking the medication. Potentially, a Fosamax lawsuit could provide users a chance to seek compensation for medical bills, lost wages and other losses related to their thigh bone or femur fracture. To find out if you may be eligible for a Fosamax lawsuit for your femur or thigh fracture, visit http://www.classaction.org/fosamax.html and fill out the form on the right for a no cost, no obligation review of your claim.
Legal recourse may be available to patients who reportedly suffered Fosamax femur fractures, as it has been alleged that the drug has been linked to a risk of unusual fractures of the thigh bone, which is one of the strongest bones in the body. Typically, to break a thigh bone, a great deal of force, such as that which occurs in a car accident, is required. Those who have reportedly suffered Fosamax femur fractures while taking the drug, however, have claimed to have only been walking across a room or descending stairs when their thighbone broke.
A type of bisphosphonate drug, Fosamax works to build bone density and prevent fractures in patients with symptoms of osteoporosis symptoms or risk factors for developing the disease; however, long-term treatment with the medication can reportedly have an adverse impact on the femur bones. Allegedly, the drug can harden the outer layer of bone calls, and prevent those cells from being replenished through normal bone remodeling. Consequently, small fractures can accrue, resulting in a spontaneous Fosamax femur fracture, without any real trauma.
Patients who have allegedly developed Fosamax femur fractures while taking the medication may have legal recourse to recover compensation for damages. Learn more about your eligibility for a Fosamax lawsuit by visiting Class Action.org and completing the free case evaluation form. The attorneys working with the site are offering this online case review at no cost and remain committed to protecting the rights of patients who suffered Fosamax fractures of the thigh or femur.
