The drug BONMEGA contains a combination of these active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs):
|
1
Alendronic acid
UNII X1J18R4W8P - ALENDRONIC ACID
|
|
Alendronic acid is a bisphosphonate that inhibits osteoclastic bone resorption with no direct effect on bone formation. The bone formed during treatment with alendronic acid is of normal quality. |
|
2
Vitamin D3
UNII 1C6V77QF41 - CHOLECALCIFEROL
|
|
In its biologically active form vitamin D3 stimulates intestinal calcium absorption, incorporation of calcium into the osteoid, and release of calcium from bone tissue. In the small intestine it promotes rapid and delayed calcium uptake. The passive and active transport of phosphate is also stimulated. |
|
3
Calcium
UNII SY7Q814VUP - CALCIUM
|
|
Calcium plays a vital role in the anatomy, physiology and biochemistry of organisms and of the cell, particularly in signal transduction pathways. The skeleton acts as a major mineral storage site for the element and releases Ca2+ ions into the bloodstream under controlled conditions. Circulating calcium is either in the free, ionized form or bound to blood proteins such as serum albumin. Although calcium flow to and from the bone is neutral, about 5 mmol is turned over a day. Bone serves as an important storage point for calcium, as it contains 99% of the total body calcium. |
