Seventy five years old with osteoporosis and also concerned about the medications available such at the various bisphosphonates. The first thing the dental offices ask those presenting with a dental issue and on their form is if your on the medication. I inquired and was told they have seen the side effects these medications have caused. My understanding is that the medications can also be related to dementia not a direct cause but if your genetically prone it can trigger the disease and acceleration.

@dougajoi, Where did you learn that the medications may be related to dementia? I am presently on Forteo, but have noticed the brain fog and more memory problems. My mother had dementia, so I am very afraid that I could get the disease. Thanks for your comment.
Where is this information on dementia? I’ve not seen that or heard that!

Are you saying that you are just beginning meds for Osteoporosis? What are your dexa scores and why a bisphosphonate first in your drug sequencing. Sequencing with these meds is very important.
