Skelid

Skelid is a common bisphosphonate drug manufactured by Sanofi Winthrop.  It is commonly prescribed to treat and prevent post-menopausal osteoporosis, Paget's disease, bone cancer and other bone-weakening diseases.  Common side effects include rash, bone pain, hives, difficulty breathing, gastrointestinal symptoms and swelling of face, lips, tongues or throat.  Bisphosphonates such as Skelid have recently been linked to Osteonecrosis of the Jaw (ONJ).  ONJ causes the jawbone to degenerate, resulting in serious and irreparable side effects including bone loss, pain, numbness and exposed bone.
