Alendronate Sodium should be taken with a full glass of water and while standing or sitting upright. It is important to avoid lying down for at least 30 minutes after taking this medication to prevent irritation of the esophagus. Individuals with low calcium levels, kidney problems, or difficulty swallowing should use this medication with caution.
