@sbcher,
Hi, I've been taking monthly Risedronate since last November after completing a year of Evenity. I'm having no side effects and being very careful about following the guidelines.
I'm also getting my CTX bone marker done monthly and unfortunately Risedronate is not keeping my CTX score down. Alarmed at my CTX going up, I took it twice one month and my score dropped down into the range where I think it should be. Then I went back to monthly and my CTX more than doubled. I'm currently researching old studies on Risedronate and thinking of trying to just do it twice monthly. I'm only planning on doing a year of Risedronate and then doing another round of Evenity.

Hi @awfultruth i'm interested in knowing your experience with risedronate as it is an agent in my tool box also, for the future. What's the dosage and frequency that you've used so far? What's your CTX at end of evenity, and the readings after you took risedronate? I read one of the papers regarding risedronate in which CTX of subjects treated with risedronate had decreased from an avg 800 to mid 100s by 4 weeks. Maybe the dose and frequency would make a difference? It will be nice to see how yours compare. Thanks
