Members shared mixed experiences with Reclast infusions for osteoporosis, with some reporting stable or improved bone density while others saw no improvement or continued fractures despite treatment. Several members described side effects including flu-like symptoms, persistent rashes, severe headaches, and neck pain, though many found that drinking plenty of water before, during, and after the infusion helped reduce these reactions. A recurring theme was the importance of requesting follow-up DEXA scans to monitor progress before continuing treatment, as the commitment to yearly infusions means living with any side effects for an extended period.

I’ve had two Reclast infusions, My Dexascan in Dec did not show an improvement but the good news is that I’m not losing bone.

I was told by my doctor to drink lots of water the day before, the day of and the day after the infusion and I would not get the flu, I am happy to say it worked no flu.
