Is it safe to have a rhinoplasty while taking Fosamax for osteoporosis?

Question

I have osteoporosis and take fosamax , are there any risks of having a rhinoplasty while being under this medication?

Edward J. Gross, MD · Answer

There
is no risk with taking the medication and having a rhinoplasty. Having
osteoporosis would not exclude you from being a candidate for rhinoplasty. We
would encourage you to see your primary care physician to get clearance before proceeding though.

Marcelo Ghersi, MD · Answer

There should be no contraindications to undergo rhinoplasty given your diagnosis of osteoporosis, or the treatment with Fosamax. Good luck.Dr. G

William Portuese, MD · Answer

Osteoporosis should not prevent the patient from obtaining a rhinoplasty procedure. It is best to check with your primary care physician and get clearance from them as well as your rhinoplasty surgeon
