How are you doing now. I will be relaying off one dose of Prolia soon with Fosamax. Hopefully no issues and I can stop without being on too long and just focus on exercise and diet.

Hi lissee,
I am doing fine, thank you! It is good that you have not been on Prolia for long before relaying off. I have read that there should not be any rebound effect with just 1 dose of Prolia but it is not a guarantee and each one is different. If you decide not to relay off with any med, you should at least monitor your CTX very closely to ensure there is no spike in bone turnover activity. Or if you decide to be more conservative and take Alendronate for a short period as gently has suggested, it is still advisable to monitor your CTX to ensure that the Alendronate is effective in suppressing any rebound effect. All the best
