The equivalent dosage with Pamidronate (a bisphosphonate that is available in the U.S.) is an i.v. dose of 90 mg given 4 times over the course of 4 to 10 days.

I don't think that as good of results will be achieved with lower doses (or oral administration), but you should discuss this with your doctor.
