Fosamax Linked to Serious Abnormal Bone Fractures
by Byron J. Richards

On March 20, 2008, The New England Journal of Medicine published a
physician group report of 15 women taking Fosamax who experienced
"atypical low-energy fractures," which means their bones broke doing
almost nothing ? a serious kind of injury typically seen in very
elderly individuals in declining health. The fact that the NEJM is
reporting this is a major wake up call to anyone who hasn't figured
out that Fosamax is dangerous to your health.

The NEJM report follows two other similar reports, one published in
2007 ((http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1735...) and the other in
2005 ((http://jcem.endojournals.org/cgi/conten...). I have reported at
great length on the near lunacy of widely prescribing this class of
drugs for bones ? as it is easy to predict based on the chemistry and
mode of action of these drugs that they will severely damage bones the
longer they are used. ((http://www.wellnessresources.com/newsro...)

This new information casts a dark pallor over the entire medical
community and their drug-pushing paradigm. I mean really, these clowns
pretending to be the gatekeepers of health are actually stupid ? just
like they were when they killed tens of thousands of innocent women
with estrogen replacement horse-urine extract. I also predicted that
problem for 15 years before they stopped!

The FDA is a major part of the problem as they have never made the
drug companies do follow up studies to show that drugs are safe when
taken for extended periods of time for a given purpose. And drug
companies never want to do these kinds of studies because they almost
always show the drugs are not safe. Fosamax is made by Merck, a
company with a rather illustrious reputation for defrauding (as in
Vytorin) and killing Americans (as in Vioxx). A common theme behind
Merck's immorality is hiding safety data from the FDA and public ? so
they can make money.

The three studies referenced above show that Fosamax wipes out healthy
bone function the longer it is taken, resulting in a "low energy"
status within bones ? producing bones so feeble that they break from
normal impacts. Biopsy and analysis done on the bones showed them to
be in a pathetic condition. There are now millions of unsuspecting
women headed down this path. This is simply disgusting. Doctors, the
FDA, and Big Pharma are to blame ? as are the members of Congress and
the Clinton and Bush administrations of the past 16 years, whose hands
are stained with Big Pharma money.
