Weren't you the one who told me that Tymlos CAN now be taken for more than 2 years? If you weren't maybe it was @gently?gently One of you did and I checked it out and posted the link. And it can be prescribed for more than 2 years. However, one is supposed to be then taking the Reclast when they complete the Tymlos for 3 years (the protocol now) and then you are done. Unless there is another reason your doctor finds to continue.
This was the article I believe I quoted from after one of you - I thought told me the restriction was lifted: https://www.ccjm.org/content/ccjom/88/9/489.full.pdf

@loriesco, hey, don't blame me.
It was probably me, but I would have sent https://www.biospace.com/radius-announces-update-on-tymlos-abaloparatide-label
Protocol is rigid--rules that must be followed. Various osteoporosis associations offer guidelines as do the manufacturers pamplets. Doctors have license to vary from guidelines.
I may have even sent the link you cite at another time, but it is about Forteo, you see.
