Interested in side effects of Reclast Infusion

Probably so, from what I just read.....Have you taken any Tylenol? That does help with the muscle pain some. They should prescribe us a few pain pills while these side effects wear off! I do not think I will take anything else other that vitamin D and calcium!

I have difficulty moving, hurting on hips, thighs and down each leg. I have pain in my side and back crusting or scaly skin, stomach discomfort excess gas, feeling of fullness and dark urine. I drink a lot of water during the day. I am so weak and tired I need to lay down and rest everyday. I also have trouble sleeping due to overall body pain. How could this be related to anything other than the Prolia injections?

👋 after several days of suffering with stomach pain and gas, I took gas x and got some relief.

Hi
Well I am not going to do it again.I know that for sure we'll see what my endocrinologist says.Hopefully I get to see him next week

Sounds like it is from the injection… especially if you did not have any symptoms prior. I even took a Covid test…. It was negative. I just wanted to make sure that it wasn’t the Covid!

me too!

Mine was injection not infusion but I just heard they are going to infusion instead of injection Cant' see how that will make a difference.

I had my 1st Reclast Infusion 18 days ago. I was fine until around 3 AM in the morning when I woke up with low back pain and felt feverish. Took my temperature which was 101.8 F; covered the temp with Tylenol 1000 mg, and every 6-hours. By daybreak I ached all over, headache, chills, and fatigue. It was encouraging to read the symptoms may last only 3 days to 2 weeks, but I'm past that and still feeling achey, and very tired. I drank plenty of water before the 15 minute infusion and after. I understand from what I've read, not from my provider, that symptoms can linger longer than 2 weeks. I'm taking Vit D3 and Calcium as prescribed. I discovered from a friend that she had aches and pains, fatigue and headaches on and off for six (6) weeks post infusion. If they want me to do another Reclast Infusion the provider needs to give me an Rx for Vicodin to help address and alleviate the persistent muscle pains. I can't get any rest and some nights suffer insomnia, restless legs; having to cat nap during the day. I'm hopeful this will go away soon and I can feel normal again. Going to try an epson salt bath, maybe absorbing some magnesium will help.

I had my 3rd yearly infusion 4 days ago. The evening after the infusion I had some muscle cramping in my left side. I got my hubby to massage my back and I took a couple of Tylenol and felt better. Since then, I've felt pretty good. Before I started the infusions my bone density was scary bad. I had many circumstances going against me. It was me who suggested Reclast infusions because I had read about Reclast. I had tried Fosamax pills and it tore my gut up and I said NOPE to that. My endocrinologist approved the Reclast infusions. My last bone density test results were remarkably better and I am thrilled and relieved. Hopefully I can take a rest from the infusions now that I've had one for the last 3 years. I'll find out near the end of this new year after my next appointment with my endocrinologist. I'm one of the fortunate one's I suppose and truly feel bad for those of you who have painful side effects. I'll be 74 this year and I'm still physically active. Reclast has given me an emotional lift by making my bones stronger. I am grateful for that.
