Bone resorption inhibitors prevent the breakdown of bone tissues and are therefore used to strengthen bone affected by osteoporosis.

<h3>What is osteoporosis? </h3>

It is a condition in which the bones have become weak and turned brittle. The term osteoporosis means 'porous bones. Osteoporosis weakens the bones and thus increases the risk of bone fractures which are sudden and unexpected.

This disease causes a decrease in bone density. It usually starts without any symptoms and doesn't cause any pain and is only diagnosed when a fracture has been caused in a weak bone.

Bone resorption is a natural process of breakdown of bone tissue to supply calcium to the body and this process is usually carried out with bone formation.

During osteoporosis, medications suppressing bone resorption are prescribed to inhibit or slow down the process of breakdown of bones
