Terriparitide and Tymlos are not on WellCare formulary. We simply had are dictor request an over ride of their formulary and they did for both. Started Teriparitide for 3 months, Doctor switching me over to Tymlos in one week. Apparrantly Tymlos is more directed towards osteoporosis where Teriparitide is more general a medication.

teriparatide is Forteo, and abaloparatide is Tymlos. Both are specifically for osteoporosis. There is some evidence that Tymlos is a little more effective. Maybe that is why the doctor is switching you over?
