摘要
The authors report the case of a 54-year-old man suffering from steroid-induced osteoporosis, who presented with severe oral ulcerations due to sucking alendronate tablets instead of swallowing them. The misuse of alendronate in this case, underlies the risk of direct mucosal injury with this drug.
