Primary Outcome Measures:

Compare subject satisfaction rating in women treated for postmenopausal osteoporosis with Actonel® 35 mg Once-a-Week for 24 weeks, and receiving feedback information after 12 weeks of treatment to similar women monitored as per regular clinical practice

Secondary Outcome Measures:

Compare subject satisfaction with Actonel® 35 mg Once-a-Week in subject subgroups: previously treated with biphosphonates, HRT, raloxifene, fluoride, or calcitonin within past 2 years vs. those previously non treated
