Fortea injections are a better option.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
I have gone through your query and understand your health concerns ,
Since you are taking Reclast for last four years it is best to shift to Fortea injections that are a safer and more effective option. You can switch over between these two every 3-4 years so as to maintain their efficacy and to reduce the side effects to the minimum.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
