A member asked:

How long is fasting required before reclast (zoledronic acid) is taken?

Good news for you!: Hi. You DO NOT HAVE TO FAST before, during, or after Reclast (zoledronic acid) being given! Reclast (zoledronic acid) is given intravenously, bypassing the GI tract entirely (unlike the oral bisphosphonates, which require fasting). Bon appetite!

Reclast: You should drink at least 2 glasses of water or other liquid prior to the Reclast infusion. You can eat prior to the infusion if you like.
