Some are transitioning from Prolia safely with Reclast. The multiple fracture rebound effect of Prolia should be monitored for two years with bone markers.
Reclast (zoledonate) has it's own set of hazards, but is the most recommended exit strategy from Prolia. You could alternately take Fosamax (alendronate) . Reclast is a yearly injection, Fosamax a daily pill.
Bone loss six months after the Prolia injection is rapid.
When are you due for another injection?
I agree with your assessment of the drug, and think that you should transition off Prolia. But you can't be shamed for trusting your physician.

@gently I wonder if, after dealing with rebound with Reclast or Fosamax, it is possible to get on a bone builder. Evenity is so new but maybe that is possible. I don't know if doctors even know.

My friend's doctor put her on Tymlos after Prolia. Leder and McCormick both say this sequence is not effective. What is the answer for those on Prolia who want to get off, beyond addressing rebound?
