ranelate στροντίου


Explanation:
Ranelate doesn't appear anywhere in Greek texts. I think you'd better leave it as is.
However, I found "Alendronate" which is translated as "ουσία alendronate". It is also a drug used to fight osteoporosis in women over 50.
As for strontium (στρόντιο) it is a metal element, the radioisotopes of which are used in medical applications.
