Anyone taken Evenity (romosozumab) for Osteoporosis?

Posted by arlene7 @arlene7, May 27, 2020

Has anyone taken Evenity? I understand it’s only been on the market for a little over a year. I’m hoping it will help with my severe osteoporosis. Any information is helpful.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Osteoporosis & Bone Health Support Group.

I think the correct term is "clients' and not "patients". Chiropractors have patients when they are practicing in the field for which they are licensed.

@normahorn agreed. McCormick is no longer doing chiropractic care so ,technically everyone who consults with him would be a client.

I have abdominal bloating and edema of my feet and calves. As of this month I have had 1 year (12 months) of abdominal injections of Evenity. I've had bloating perodically in the past, almost constantly now since using Evenity, I've had edema of my feet, ankles and calves for several months. It has become worse in the last 3 weeks , to the extent of Plus 1 and Plus 2. My blood pressure and weight have increased for the last three months. I am not taking a diuretic

@arlene7 facial rash is noted in the clinicals. It is thought to be an allergic reaction, so an antihistamine might help. The concern is for anaphaylaxis which can affect your kidney function. http://www.evenity.com
"Call your healthcare provider or go to the nearest emergency room right away if you have any symptoms of a serious allergic reaction including: rash; hives; swelling of the face, lips, mouth, tongue, or throat which may cause difficulty in swallowing or breathing."
While this seems like a terrible post to receive early in the morning, I suspect you are not in danger this long after the injections. You might reconsider the next injection with the help of the providing physician.
