Reclast is preferable after that one year of Prolia, according to McCormick. I have no idea whether this idea has been tested or even used a lot. It may be speculative. If I talk to McCormick I will ask him or maybe someone else can.

My doctors would always want Reclast after Prolia. MCCormick's book "Great Bones" go into a lot of detail about how to safely transition from Prolia to Reclast, using bone markers.

Life with osteoporosis is serious enough so I appreciate an MD with a sense of humor!

My doc says an entire conference could be held to discuss pros and cons of bone markers!

Thank you so much for sharing this information. I was wondering why I was not being tested for bone markers. As I mentioned before, I started my third year on Forteo in July. I hope that this is the right thing to be doing, but I was scared of Reclast from reading about all of the side effects. After Forteo I will take Fosomax and Calcitonin. How are you doing Windy?
