Do you need special permission to go back on Forteo again after two years? I wish that my to years on Forteo were not coming to an end in July because I would like to stay on it forever.

Yes @janflute usually FORTEO is approved for 18-24 mo. Any subsequent usage would need insurance approval again.

@janflute have you discussed with your endo about another round of forteo? My endo is willing. Likely I’ll use HRT after this round. If HRT is not suitable for you, you could ask your endo if it’s a good idea to use Boniva IV, or oral risedronate delayed release (Altevia is the brand) as relay for another round of forteo for you. These might not be sufficient for long term as antiresorptive though.
