The potent bisphosphonates offer great promise in the management of Paget's disease of bone, but are currently available only as parenteral preparations in most countries. There is a need for a well-tolerated, oral therapy. Furthermore, none of the currently available therapies have been rigorously demonstrated to heal the lytic bone lesions characteristic of this condition. Alendronate is a potent new oral aminobisphosphonate that has shown promising effects on Paget's disease in preliminary studies.
