Have you had side effects from the Evenity? I have drug sensitivity really bad and am concerned to take it. That is why I was reading about the Fortibone collagen. My Dexa was-4.4 I need to do something because my neck and back get so painful.

Hi @gma14fun, I haven't had any side effects that have been very bothersome. The worst part is the injection site pain and swelling, but that lasts less than 24 hours.
Before the injections, I drink loads of water and take 2 Tylenol. I feel like that helps.

Experiences vary. There's a discussion here on Connect where we've been sharing our Evenity side effects at all stages of treatment. I've found it very helpful. In case you haven't already found it, here's the link:

gma14fun,
I didn’t have any side effects from Evenity other than after the first injections. Then I had flu like symptoms for a day. I continued to have eleven more injections with no problems.
I have also tolerated Forteo, Tymlos, and now Reclast with no problems.
Everyone is different. I’m just stating my experience for the sake of our very small research group here on this site.
