McGartland & Borchardt, LLP is a Texas plaintiff's law firm that represents patients injured by dangerous prescription drugs, such as Fosamax.  Located in Fort Worth, our firm serves persons in the communities throughout the Dallas-Fort Worth region.

Doctors prescribe Fosamax (alendronate sodium) to treat osteoporosis in women after menopause. However, research has uncovered a strong correlation between Fosamax and a disease called osteonecrosis of the jaw, otherwise known as dead jaw. Dead jaw produces the following symptoms: aching or pain in the jaw, bone loss, loosening teeth, and oral infections. The FDA has issued alerts regarding Fosamax to long-term patients of Fosamax because the drug stays in the body for an indeterminate period and may have long-lasting, detrimental effects.

If you took Fosamax and have since experienced bone pain, loss, or fractures, please call McGartland & Borchardt, LLP at 817-332-9300 or contact us online for a free consultation.
