Abstract
Zoledronic Acid is used for treatment of hypercalcemia of malignancy, for the treatment of bone metastasis associated with malignancies such as prostate and breast cancer, for the prevention of and treatment of osteoporosis and for the treatment of Paget's disease. Administration of Zoledronic Acid is complicated by what is described as 'post-dosing syndrome' (PDS) and osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ). Inflammation may be the cause of these side effects, which could be decreased by the co-administration of steroids. This application is a method of use patent for the co-administration of steroids (oral, IV, IM, rectal, or by inhalation) with Zoledronic Acid and a composition of matter patent for mixing Methyl Prednisolone with Zoledronic Acid for infusion.
