Tymlos and Forteo are similar in the way they work. So you can choose whichever one has the better price. The companies also have financial assistance programs. Radius makes Tymlos and you can find their assistance program online: "Radius Assist."

I chose Tymlos because I did not tolerate Forteo, while others tolerate Forteo better. Tymlos has an adjustable pen so I started at a low dose and increased it so my body could adjust. Tymlos is especially good for spine.

Tymlos and Forteo do not pose any problems with dental work. Bisphosphonates like Reclast and Fosamax, and Prolia, and to a lesser extent Evenity, can sometimes cause problems with jaw and dental work. But Tymlos and Forteo are fine in that regard.

My info is from my doctors and from books like "Great Bones" by McCormick. I hope you have a good endocrinologist who can discuss this choice with you!
