Osteoporosis is a common condition that weakens bones, making them fragile and more likely to break. It often occurs in women after menopause or who are taking steroids. This condition can be treated with bone-strengthening medicines. Osteofos 70 Tablet slows down the rate at which bone is broken down in your body. This maintains bone density and reduces your risk of breaking a bone. You can also help improve the strength of your bones by doing regular exercise (especially weight-bearing exercise), eating healthy foods containing calcium and Vitamin D, and reducing your consumption of alcohol and tobacco. Supplements of calcium and Vitamin D3 are also effective.
