Uses of Osteopam 30mg Injection

Osteopam 30mg Injection is given as a slow drip into a vein to lower high blood calcium caused by cancer.

It is given in hospital or a clinic.

How Osteopam 30mg Injection works

Pamidronate attaches to bone and slows down the cells that break bone down. This reduces the amount of calcium released from bone into the blood, eases bone pain and helps protect weakened bones from damage.

• Fever and flu-like symptoms
