===Pharmacokinetics=== |
|
|
The fraction of the drug that reaches the circulatory system intact (systemic ]) after oral dosing is low, averaging only 0.6–0.7% in women and in men under fasting conditions. Intake together with meals and beverages other than water further reduces the bioavailability. The absorbed drug rapidly ], with approximately 50% binding to the exposed bone surface; the remainder is excreted unchanged by the kidneys. Unlike with most drugs, the strong negative charge on the two phosphonate ] limits oral bioavailability, and, in turn, the exposure to tissues other than bone is very low. After absorption in the bone, alendronate has an estimated terminal elimination half-life of 10 years.<ref name="pmid8689235">{{cite journal | vauthors = Shinkai I, Ohta Y | title = New drugs--reports of new drugs recently approved by the FDA.
