Heteroarylaminomethanediphosphonic acids of the formula ##STR1## in which R.sub.1 represents an optionally benzo- or cyclohexeno-fused 5-membered heteroaryl radical that contains, as hetero atom(s), either from 2 to 4 N-atoms or 1 or 2 N-atoms as well as 1 O-atom or S-atom and that is unsubstituted or is substituted by lower alkyl; by phenyl that is unsubstituted or is substituted by lower alkyl, lower alkoxy and/or by halogen; by lower alkoxy; by hydroxy; by di-lower alkylamino; by lower alkylthio and/or by halogen; and R.sub.2 represents hydrogen or lower alkyl, and their salts, have a regulatory action on the calcium metabolism and can be used as active ingredients in medicaments for the treatment of illnesses that can be attributed to disorders of the calcium metabolism. They are manufactured, for example, as follows: in a compound of the formula ##STR2## in which X.sub.1 represents a functionally modified phosphono group X and X.sub.2 represents phosphono or similarly represents a functionally modified phosphono group X, the group(s) X is(are) converted into free phosphono.
