@elizabeth007 it is helpful to read the actual studies. The warning sare about cardiovascular risks with Evenity. One study found no difference between Evenity and placebo in that regard and another study showed a small difference with alendronate, which some articles say may have been due to a small protective factor of alendrontate, according to the studies (ARCH and FRAME). There are other possible effects of Evenity that have not been studied as thoroughly. As always talk to a doctor about personal risks with any medication.
