It may just be a single injection but if you are being treated for bone problems caused by the spread of cancer you may need regular injections. Your doctor will ask you to drink plenty of water before the injection, to avoid getting dehydrated. It may take several days to get the full benefit of this drug. Pamidria 90mg Injection is only part of a program of treatment that may also include changes to your diet and taking calcium and vitamin supplements.
