Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Bone mineral density (BMD) (dual energy X-ray absorptiometry) is used for the diagnosis of osteoporosis in patients over 50 years of age. After intravenous injection of 5 mg of zoledronic acid, the side effects, type and severity are assessed. At the end of the first year, the effect of the zoledronic acid injection is evaluated by re-evaluating the BMD.
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
aboratory test (osteocalcin, c-telopeptide, vitamin D, calcium) are evaluated before and one year after the administration of zoledronic acid.
