Clodronic acid（Cat No.:M051951）, also known as clodronate, is a bisphosphonate drug. It is used primarily to treat bone-related diseases like osteoporosis, Paget’s disease, and bone metastases associated with cancer. Clodronic acid works by inhibiting osteoclast-mediated bone resorption, thereby helping to prevent bone loss and increase bone density. It is also used in the management of hypercalcemia of malignancy, reducing high blood calcium levels caused by cancer.
