Medication following Evenity- Reclast vs Prolia?

I saw Actonel on the chart in Dr. McCormick’s book, but there doesn’t seem to be much info about it. Book says it was approved in 1998
Which seems like a long time ago.
I am curious about it in case I have trouble with Reclast.
My GERD is bad and I am on Protonix for that. Protonix is bad for bones - I asked gastroenterologist to put me on something else and he did not - he lowered dosage from 40mg to 20mg.

@susanfalcon52 I transitioned from Prilosec to Pepcid or Zantac and then tapered, I now take Pepcid only as needed and Tums. Our bodies adapt to the meds like Protonix and actually make us worse off when we stop so we have to taper and transition. It is a PIA and takes time. Maybe you are not able to but just sharing my experience. I don't eat after 5!
