What scares you about the Osteoporosis meds? Do you have a history of sensitivity to meds? What are your dexa scores.

I am very sensitive to meds and don’t currently take anything except the odd mild painkiller occasionally if I have to. My dexa score is not bad on hip -2.9 but total spine score -3.7 with a very low L 3 score a -4.7 this seems to have escalated madly in last three years.

Side effects with no improvements on Dexa scans.
In addition, dental work can not be done while on an Osteo drug. You have to wait 3 months for it to clear your system.
The need to “bookend” your Osteo drug, when you go off one you must begin another. If not progress gained is lost.
