Yes we are discussing the next drug after my current Evenity. Dr is suggesting the sequence of:
Prolia for 1 year > Evenity

She did not indicate what to use after the 2nd course of Evenity, if I chose the sequence of Prolia > Evenity.
I'm sorry for all the confusion. I'm kinda leaning towards the Reclast as my next drug.

@255anny no problem. I think I'm making myself confused here 🙂

Then really it comes down to which antiresorptive as a relay in between the two rounds of evenity is better. That's the big question. You'd have a better picture if you could find evenity-->reclast-->evenity study. Then compare which relay drug attenuated evenity's effects less. Head to head studies are likely non existent. Your endo might know a lot info about the differences in results between the two.

Hypothetical questions to both you and @windyshores, can you just go straight for a 2nd year of evenity if can get prior authorization (an after thought: it seems 12-24mo bmd increase not that much if used continously for 2 yrs)? Why a full year antiresorptive? Can you do 1 shot of prolia (a lot safer) or 1/2 dose reclast, i.e., a 6mo antiresorptive then to 2nd round evenity?
