Osteonil 60mg Tablet

Osteonil 60mg Tablet contains Raloxifene 60mg, a selective oestrogen receptor modulator. Made by Standpharma, it is prescribed for osteoporosis after menopause and reducing breast cancer risk. Pack size: 14 tablets.

Uses of Osteonil 60mg Tablet

Osteonil 60mg Tablet is used to prevent and treat osteoporosis (thinning of the bones) in women after the menopause, lowering the risk of spinal fractures. In some women at increased risk, it may also be prescribed to reduce the chance of developing invasive breast cancer. It is not used in men or in women before the menopause, and it does not relieve hot flushes.

How Osteonil 60mg Tablet works

Raloxifene acts like oestrogen on bone, slowing bone loss and helping to maintain bone density, but it blocks oestrogen’s effects in breast and womb tissue. This selective action lets it protect the skeleton without stimulating the breast or the lining of the womb.

Possible side effects

Some women notice side effects with Osteonil 60mg Tablet, most often:

• Hot flushes
• Leg cramps
• Swelling of the hands, feet or ankles
• Flu-like symptoms

Seek urgent medical help for pain, swelling or redness in one leg, sudden breathlessness or chest pain, sudden vision problems, or signs of a stroke such as facial drooping or weakness on one side.
