Patient's Query

Hi,

Can Co Etidrocal- Etidronate disodium 14 days course & Calcium Carbonate 75 days after Etidisodium be taken on the same day, one in the morning and other in the evening?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

  • I assume, you are taking both these drugs for osteoporosis.
    • I usually do not prefer to use Etidronate as it has to be taken daily.
      • And there is nothing like 14 days course. We have better options, to be taken once a month only.
        • However coming to your query, I do not find any problem in taking both of them same day.
          • But in this case, gastritis may be a little more.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
