We recommend that when talking about side effects, we use simple frequencies.

For example

“A possible side effect of this osteoporosis medicine is indigestion or reflux.”

“About 1 in 10 people will experience indigestion when taking an osteoporosis medicine. This means that 9 in 10 people won’t experience indigestion. To reduce your chance of having this side effect, make sure that you stand upright for 30 minutes after taking the medicine and take plenty of water.”

“If this medicine does not suit you, please let us know as there are other medicine options”
