Bisphosphonates-related tendinopathies and ligament disorders: Cases analysis from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration adverse event reporting system. (PubMed, Bone)
A total of 3202 reported cases of TPLDs were associated with five BPs (alendronate, pamidronate, ibandronate, risedronate, zoledronate), with statistically significant reporting odds ratio (ROR), proportional reporting ratio (PRR), and information component (IC). The most often reported concomitant/prior medicines were calcium supplements, another BPs, antitumor agents, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. In conclusion, we provide a comprehensive overview of the correlation and clinical characteristics, and prognosis of BP-related TPLDs deserving continued surveillance and appropriate management.
