I love Tymlos. It saved me. I am very sensitive to meds so after trying a full dose and not tolerating it, I started at 1/8 dose and moved up so my body got used to it. My doc is doing this with other patients now. You may not need to. Many people do just fine. And side effects, for me, eased up over time. I did two years.

I had amazing gains and rarely did a full dose. I went from severe osteoporosis in my spine to borderline )-3.6 to -2.5). It's really good for the spine.

Tymlos comes in a pen with "clicks' for each 10 mcg dose. The full dose is 80mcg or 8 clicks.

The half life is only ONE hour. That means Tymlos leaves your body quickly so in my experience any side effects lasted about two hours. Some take it at night. I like taking it in the morning. Hydrate. Many do fine. Maybe don't read about side effects until you have them- if you do 🙂

I am so new to this site. I am scared and confused. I just flout that I have osteoporosis. Pretty bad case. My endocrinologist told me that I should consider Tymlos. I have a 4 healed fractures in my spine. He gave me a sample of Tymlos. I didn’t started yet because I am having severe back pain ( it started after exercising). Going to pain clinic first. To deal with this problem first.
