Zoledronic acid (sometimes called zoledronate) is in a group of medicines called bisphosphonates (bis FOS fo nayts). Zoledronic acid inhibits the release of calcium from bones. Zometa and Reclast are two different brands of zoledronic acid. The Reclast brand of zoledronic acid is used to treat Paget's disease, and to treat or prevent osteoporosis in postmenopausal women or people who take certain steroid medicines. Reclast is also used to increase bone mass in men with osteoporosis.
The once-yearly infusion of zoledronic acid (Reclast) reduced the risk of vetebral, hip, and other fractures in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis, Dennis M. Black, Ph.D., of the University of California here, and colleagues, reported in the May 3 issue of the New England Journal of Medicine.
