"I am allergic to Fosamax. My doctor gave me an Atelvia sample to try, and I found I had no side effects from this medicine. I credit this to its time-release function."

"Bone pain. Sometimes the bone even cannot touch as it will cause unbearable pain. Stop taking it after 5 years and waiting for the pain to go away."

"My doctor gave me samples to use while I awaited my insurance to approve. After taking the first dosage in approximately 29 hours, I was in the hospital. Side effects for me were extreme bone pain, indigestion. Doctors thought I was having a heart attack."
