etidronate and Autoimmune Disease

etidronate has been researched along with Autoimmune Disease in 2 studies

Etidronic Acid: A diphosphonate which affects calcium metabolism. It inhibits ectopic calcification and slows down bone resorption and bone turnover.
etidronic acid : A 1,1-bis(phosphonic acid) that is (ethane-1,1-diyl)bis(phosphonic acid) having a hydroxy substituent at the 1-position. It inhibits the formation, growth, and dissolution of hydroxyapatite crystals by chemisorption to calcium phosphate surfaces.

"Premenopausal women (n = 16) and men (n = 5) who had just developed autoimmune diseases, and who agreed to use high dose glucocorticoid therapy for the first time, were randomized to receive alfacalcidol (1 micro g/day) alone (alfacalcidol group, n = 11); or alfacalcidol (1 micro g/day) and intermittent cyclical etidronate (200 mg/day for 14 days), given for 4 cycles (combined group, n = 10)."9.11Etidronate prevents high dose glucocorticoid induced bone loss in premenopausal individuals with systemic autoimmune diseases.
