Thank you for the encouragement. In most cases, the bisphosphonate used as the relay drug in the study was Reclast so i hope the same results apply to Alendronate which is less potent
It's good that you are comfortable and happy with your experience with Prolia and i wish you success and all the best

Thanks, you as well. Dr. Serge Ferrari had proposed the possibility of using alendronate first after Prolia, watching your CTX values, then moving to Reclast if your CTX jumps past your baseline CTX. The belief is that since alendronate is weekly, it might be better at slowing the rise in CTX as Prolia wears off. No data shown for this yet, but hopefully there will be before I have to transition off Prolia. 🙂
