Can Tymlos side effects appear after over a month on the stuff?

@anewyorker , I started Tymlos several weeks ago. I did experience short lived nausea, back pain, headache and racing heart. Typically these lasted only a few hours. A week after starting Tymlos, I began to develop gastrointestinal symptoms (as you describe) which did not stop and I couldn't function. I stopped the Tymlos and felt better after 24 hours. I plan to restart on a smaller dose. How are you doing now?

It sounds like you had a horrible time, @lyleswan. I hope the lower dose does it for you and that you’re feeling better.

I’m still having occasional problems with nausea and bloating for an hour or two after the shot, which is uncomfortable but not enough to make me stop taking it, especially since there are really no other options. For some reason even the generic Forteo was more expensive; Tymlos will cost only (insert ironic expression here) around $4000 this year and less next year because of the 2025 Medicare Part D cap.

I’m amazed at how differently we all react to these drugs. I’ll never look at a general list of side effects the same way again.
