I think I understand. When we are initially presented with a treatment, I do not believe that our practioners fully explain that we are starting a lifetime of osteoporosis drugs. I know I had to push to get the scope. Only be joining Connect did I grasp what this entails. Transparency upfront would build trust.
I also have taken Evenity and now Prolia which I will take up to 3 injections and then Reclast . I am following the advice of my endocrinologist and McCormick’s.
It’s not an easy process and hopefully no side effects. I just don’t want to lose all that I have gained from Evenity and to continue in improving my BMD .
@lindarent sorry I don't understand. I have taken Tymlos, Evenity and Reclast.
The medications you name are all different, with different mechanisms. So you aren't getting too much of any one medication, just a sequence. Most of us have to take at least two or three medications because there is a need to "lock in" gains from our first drugs.
If you have only done on Prolia, you could follow it with Fosamax or maybe Evenity if your doctor wants more bone built. Maybe Forteo would be effective after only one Prolia. I don't know, and your doctor can guide you.
But you have to do something to "lock in" gains after Tymlos, Forteo, Evenity and especially Prolia. As I wrote, most of us "lock in" with a bisphosphonate but your doctor can guide you.
