Oral Ibandronate Therapy in Three Patients with Osteogenesis Imperfecta

Introduction: Treatment with orally administered ibandronate is an effective way to increase bone mineral density (BMD) and reduce fracture rate in post-menopausal women and in men with osteoporosis. There are only very few reports concerning ibandronate therapy in children and adolescents, and in p...
