Phase 3
Completed
Conditions
Postmenopausal Osteoporosis
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT00541658
Lead Sponsor
Warner Chilcott
Brief Summary

The purpose of this trial is to study the efficacy of a 35 mg delayed release weekly dosing regimen as compared to the standard daily dosing regimen of risedronate 5 mg daily.

Detailed Description

The comparator arms of this risedronate study are 35 mg delayed release given weekly and 5 mg immediate release given daily.
