Hi @meemer. Welcome to Connect. Have you noticed any improvement with the 2 Reclast treatments you've had so far?

I have only had 1 treatment of Reclast without any marked improvement. I am however scheduled for a treatment of Prolea on Tuesday August 2nd 2016. Hopefully this will better benefit me..What is your take if any on the drug Prolea ??

Thank you for your response

Colleen, since my insurance will pay for a DEXA once every 2 years, I have not had once since my first Reclast infusion. I will have another DEXA in December and then decide if Reclast is helping and whether to have a third one.

Sandi, my mom has been taking Prolia for 2 years now, an injection every 6 months. She has had no side effects and quite positive results for which I am grateful. Her mobility has also improved.

You may wish to hear from other Connect members discussing Prolia in these 2 discussion threads:
