Description
Product Introduction
Risofos 35 Tablet is used to treat and prevent osteoporosis, a condition that causes the bones to weaken and become more fragile. Osteoporosis commonly occurs in women after menopause or in individuals using steroids. By strengthening the bones, Risofos 35 helps to reduce the risk of fractures. This medication works by slowing down the rate at which bones are broken down in the body, maintaining bone density and reducing the likelihood of bone fractures.
To achieve optimal results, Risofos 35 should be taken regularly, as prescribed by your doctor. It is part of a comprehensive treatment plan that may include dietary changes, calcium and vitamin D supplementation, and regular exercise.
